  2. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Georgia-Miss-Amazing-Pageants/230813743620642 This is the correct link for the Georgia Miss Amazing Pageant facebook page. Please like our page to support our cause. Thanks!!
  3. We accept your offer to help. As soon as we received venue confirmation, I'll be in touch with the date and time. From that point it will happen very quickly. I am very proud of Kayla and everyone that has embraced her. She's a pretty cool kid, well I should say...young lady now. She takes the pageant very seriously. I am her voice and legs but she is the master mind behind it all. I'm sure she would enjoy seeing you again so I hope it works out that you can help. Thanks!!!
  4. Thank you! I will accept all offers!
  5. Kayla Prather, a senior at EPHS has been named the State Director for Georgia Miss Amazing Pageant. The Miss Amazing Pageant is open to all young girls and women with physical and mental disabilities between the ages of 5 and 35. Participating in the pageant builds confidence and increases self-esteem in these amazing young women as they enjoy a fun-filled day designed just for them. Every girls is a winner! And what a joy it is to see the smiles and pride on their faces as they stand on stages at the end of the show! The purpose of the pageant is to build confidence and increase self-e
  6. Yes, that's the same kind of service and mentality, my daughter met when she was on employment. DFACS is the same. She is an unskilled worker, but attending school now to gain a skill, and has 3 children. She qualifies for aid for her children. Her unemployment ended and thank goodness she was able to secure a job at a little above minimum wage. However, DFACS sent her a letter stating that she exceeded the income requirements for her kids on Medicaid and cancelled their coverage. Her 6 year old son's appendics ruptured causing emergency surgery and 5 days in the hospital. When she call
  7. I tried to watch it but got "car sick" and had to turn it off! Damn!
  8. This is a great website for southern recipes and she even gives step by step instructions and photos, which is perfect for someone just learning to cook. She has a fried pie recipe using canned biscuits and she also used canned biscuits to make some yummy looking donuts. She lives in Alabama and recently appeared with AL Roker on his show, maybe you got it. Anyway, check out her website. http://www.southernplate.com/
  9. No mail delivery today and UPS will not be out today either. Here's a link from AJC full of info regarding road conditions and other information. Stay warm!! http://www.ajc.com/news/atlanta-weather-snow-ice-800743.html
  10. DOT is asking everyone to stay off the roads! Why not ask your employer if there is work you can do from home? At least then, you've gone the extra mile. But please listen to those that know the conditions of the roads...and follow their advice! There have been reports of 415 wrecks since Sunday, and I think that's is the city of Atlanta alone!
  11. How thoughtful...but it started with you and the relationship you have building with them over the years. They must really think a lot of you!!! You are truly blessed by their friendship! Merry Christmas
  12. Thanks Liberty Lady! I enjoyed FARA Claus and posted the video on my FB page for other FAers and members of the Atlanta Ataxia Support group to enjoy and share. Merry Christmas to you and your family!!

  14. For those of you wanting to know a little more about FARA, I just received this newsletter in my email this morning. Ron Bartek is the founder of FARA and recently lost his son to this horrible disease. I believe his son was in his young 20's, which is the average life expectancy for FAers that develop this disease at a very young age, such as Liberty Lady's niece and my granddaughter. FARA's mission is to find a cure and they, along with the members (& parents) of FARA are always trying to raise $$$s for research. Hopefully a cure will be found in the near future. Thanks, Liberty Lad
  15. I voted! And, urge others to vote too. You can vote daily...so far, FARA is leading...thanks to everyone that votes!!! My granddaughter has FA and it is a terrible, terrible disease. She was diagnosed at the tender young age of 8. I watched my beautiful granddaughter, a social butterfly - popular amongst all her little friends and on a competition dance team winning trophies...go from active to walking with the aid of a walker, then using a scooter to get around, then a stroller and ending up, unable to support her weight and using a power chair full-time. At a time when most teenagers

  20. How lucky you were to receive and how lucky you are to be in a position to give back! Happy Holidays!!!
  21. I just thought of another idea....it would involve your entire family plus it would be something that your daughter could take ownership for, with your supervision....it would require an investment of time too, but hey, anything worth doing is worth doing right and all the way!!! She could organize a winter coat drive or canned food drive thru her school or church. it would be a wonderful experience, not only in giving to others but also organizing, communications and marketing. We have a friend that started a shoebox program where they collected personal items for service men and women.
  22. Here's a link to a message board where you might be able to find your answer...I have not used it, just did a google search...good luck! http://forum.antiquetrader.com/
  23. Do it as a family, if she sees you and your husband involved, its less likely it will feel like a lesson! And even if she does, maybe one day she will look back and see the lesson! There are so many ways to volunteer...food banks, going to a nursing home and brightening someone's day that doesnt have family, visiting shut-in neighbors, adopting a child or family at Christmas,volunteering at one of the non-profit thrift stores here on pcom ... here's a link from the Internet. Hope it gets you started! http://www.bygpub.com/books/tg2rw/volunteer.htm Good luck - teenagers can be cha
