Cuddle Cot in Honor of Lily
Donation protected
I'm nervous to post this so bear with me...
As you know, Lily passed away in August 2014 because she had Trisomy 13. You also know that I sell LipSense. When I signed up, I knew I wanted to make Child and Pregnancy Loss Month a part of my business. I joined LipSense because of my girls, all three of them. On October 15th, I'll be taking orders and the entire profits from those orders will be towards the purchase of a cuddle Cot. If you're unfamiliar with a cuddle Cot, simply put it is a machine that allows parents to have time with their babies.
Time is the currency of our lives, people. Brandon and I had 7 hours and 22 minutes with Lily. To put it into perspective, that's how long it takes to get from Tahlequah, Okla. to St. Louis, Missouri. It's a road trip. We pass through that amount of time daily and don't think twice about it. If you're familiar with the new tv show, "This Is Us," then you know the quote the good doctor gave that daddy, "Sometimes life is about taking the sourest lemon life has to offer and making something resembling lemonade." This is a way for us to make lemonade for mommas and daddies on the sourest day of their lives.
Some facts for you:
- 1 in 4 women experience child loss. ONE. IN. FOUR.
- We are partnering with the United States Cuddle Cot Campaign Initiative.
- The purchase of a Cuddle Cot is approximately $3500 which covers the cost of the machine plus a Moses basket.
- We will be making the donation to the Willow Creek Women's Hospital since that is where Lily was born and it will be made in her honor.
- The price of a LipSense collection is $55. The wholesale cost to me is $27.50 plus tax so your donation will be $27.50.
- If you're a male and don't wear lipstick, but would like to make a donation, I'll be posting a link for a gofundme site in the comments. If you're a female and don't wear lipstick, then you are welcome to use the gofundme site as well.
-I've added LipSense as a part of this because you could make a purchase for a woman you know who has experienced loss. The gifts that meant the most to us after Lily passed were the ones that people purchased in her honor. This is like that but for them.
- I will also post the google form in the comments that you can use to place an order.
- I've made the post public in case you have friends or family you know would love to donate.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me.
P.S. This is the only photo I've ever posted of our Lily.
