So secondly nomination rules. If you think you or a loved one would like one of these packs then you can nominate yourself or them by commenting on this blog or private emailing me on kirstietancock@icloud.com I could like you to include your full name, your age (must be 17+) your illness/condition which causes you to spend a lot of time in hospital and if you could tell me a bit about yourself and your condition. Also please leave a email address so I can contact you if you have won.

You can have any condition/illness this is not specific for cf or transplant patients, the only stipulation Is that you spend a lot of time in hospital, these packs are created for people who are having a long admission or in and out of hospital. perhaps a rehabilitation from an accident or a life long condition.

Please share this blog, the more nominations I get the better so I can find somebody who truly needs a smile put on the face. The deadline for nominations is the 1st of December as I hope them to go out before Christmas.

Best wishes and thank you to all those who donates to this project, I'm so proud of it and looking forward to the smiles it will create.

The big giveaway

Ok so I'm currently in the process of sorting a blog giveaway. The giveaway is designed for people who spend a lot of time in hospital with a long term illness or have a big admission coming up. It's a hospital survival package! There will be 10 of them, each filled with hospital essentials of the highest quality, things like batiste dry shampoo which they have kindly already donated along with cute mini brushes. There will also be lots of smellys, deodorants, moisturisers, DVDs, sweets, chocolate, massage oils. I'm hoping this will be the most amazing package ever, filled with love and well wishes to who ever receive them.

So to tell you the back story to my project, when I was in hospital before my transplant, my fellow cfer and good friend Elly sent me a mini package filled with little bits and bobs for the admission. It had a note explaining the importance of each item and I have to say it was an amazing idea and gift. Me and Elly discussed the present and said she would like to do it on a larger scale, so I hope she doesn't mind but iv stolen her idea, well not stolen, borrowed. The reason being I put a pack like this together for my friend Kate, she was very ill at the time after having what I describe as a horrible build up to transplant and a very complicated road after. I took the package into her at harefield and was extremely happy when I saw a smile from her, I hope she doesn't mind me say but a rare sight at the time with all she was going through. I'm glad to say Kate is doing much better and I'm forever proud of the smile that pack caused.

So if any companies are reading this, please contact me on kirstietancock@icloud.com if you think you could donate towards helping someone smile. You will certainly make me smile if the generosity shown by batiste was mirrored.

I will put details of how to enter my giveaway at a later date when the packs are all together and I have photos of all the fabulous goodies.

Once again I'd like to thank batiste for restoring my faith in large successful company's and years of service to my hair when I haven't had the strength to wash it.
