Promise

Last fall we promised to post about Cardthartic's Book Loft event for BDSRA, and we're finally following through. Cardthartic's new website is up, and although we're not sure the launch is official until next week, we think the new site looks fabulous.

When this photo was taken, her exterior belied an extraordinary problem. But Cardthartic saw promise. Cardthartic saw her light. They saw a faerie and they organized an event that allowed so many Celia supporters to show love and to share compassion.  Over $4,400 was raised for BDSRA last September, money that allowed the continuation of promising research aimed at finding a cure.
But that's not all.  Cardthartic promised to donate all proceeds from the sale of Celia's card, anywhere and forever, to BDSRA.  It says so right on the back of the card.  If you haven't seen one yet, and you'd like your very own, please visit Cardthartic's new website, where you'll be able to view and order Celia's card (Little Reminder #329) and many other cards that likely capture exactly what you want to say.
It's evident that the folks at Cardthartic understand that problems to be solved aren't as important as people to be loved.  But the promise of an eventual cure for Batten, of solving the enzyme problem, seems more deliverable with every donation... and the big one from Cardthartic's Book Loft event means ever so much.
