Nancy,
My first thought was, "I'm really not in the giving mood - too much has been taken from me"... but I reread your post and realized that you are right, giving with an open (albeit broken) heart comes back ten fold.
i was shocked to read yesterday that 1/5 of pakistan is under water....incredible. i appreciate your post to heighten awareness of this overwhelming tragedy.
This makes me so sad. Thank you for sharing this!
The situation in Pakistan is one immense problem. We may not be able to solve it, but we can help.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this!
Hi Nancy,
Agree we all need to help Pakistan, especially all governments of all countries.
England's Prime Minister David Cameron's speech about Pakistan exporting terrorism seems to have inhibited money from many countries.
Love,

it truly does take a village to raise a child - and all of us to help each other in this world - wonderful post, lady!
