This is an email from a consulant of mine. I thought some of you might be interested in reading it. Let me know what you think! I am excited!!!
Kim,
Thanks for sharing this with me. No, I haven't heard of something quite like this, but would be interested in hearing more about the needs of the NILMDTS forum regarding what they're looking for in an event. I am very open to trying to put something together to meet the needs of the forum, but would definitely need more information. Talk to your forum friends and people in the discussion rooms and let me know if you can give me a better idea about preference of night crop, all day crop, weekend retreat, cost parameters, what type of an event are they looking for - obviously it will be extremely emotional and draining for those attending, and for me as well - I want to make sure that I would be prepared enough to actually host this type of event. Also, would it bother the participants to know that I have three children and have not experienced anything like what they have experienced with the loss of a child? That would definitely be something that I would need to know that they would be okay with, so that I wouldn't be guilt ridden for having three healthy children. Please let me know. Thanks!
This was my reply:
Kari-
I will talk to others and get back to you. Plus, I need to figure out where everyone lives. Thank you for even thinking about doing something like this for us. You don’t know how much that means to me.
Don’t be quilt ridden. Everyone is given a road to journey down and some have more bumps then others. We are a group of parents that are looking to mend those bumps and potholes and find the newly constructed roads. We would be so grateful to find someone even thinking or putting on an event.
We are searching to find some scrapbook healing=). I will let you know what they think. This will take sometime to figure out.
Thanks again,
Kim
