Sadly my baby Grandson has been born severely brain damaged, he has Microcephaly. Although I have had some experience of this many years ago when I worked in a Social Services Day Nursery as a Nursery Nurse, very little is available today about this condition. My Son is trying to get an online support group set up for our area where we live.
My Grandson needs sensory toys and equipment to help his development, as he is now 8 months old but in many ways is still like a new born baby. He does not interact, play, cannot sit by himself, and is unable to focus to even look at his Mother, very sad! But it has been suggested we purchase a bubble tube for him. The cost beginning at £500 is beyond his parents means.
So I have suggested selling my handmade cards and Avon products to help raise necessary funds towards this. Ideally I would love to be able to raise money to help other families who are going through the same sort of problems by donating equipment to help their children. Our children are very precious to us. To me all children are precious, healthy or disabled and after 40+ years of working in child care I thought when I retired I would have the joy of Grandchildren, never dreaming of what has happened to my Grandson.
Is anyone able to offer any advice as to how to generate fundraising by selling online?
