Isabella
Update on Isabella
I have had several people contact me since the
July newsletter was sent out to find out how
Nathaniel's friend Isabella is doing. I am pleased
to report that her grave condition has improved.
She is no longer in the Intensive Care Unit and we
are hopeful that she will be able to return home
in the next few weeks. Her recovery and any
lasting effects from this illness are not known,
although given what her body has gone through, it
is highly probable that there may be lifetime
issues with her kidneys or other internal organs,
diabetes, or reduced immune system function.
For anyone who is not familiar with her story ...
Isabella is 3 years old. Almost exactly 1 month
ago, she and her younger sister Ellessia came down
with what seemed like a tummy bug with diarrhea
and vomitting. Ellessia was feeling better after a
few days so they went ahead and left on their
vacation to Maine. Isabella's condition worsened
within a day or two and her parents took her to
the hospital in Portland, ME. They discovered she
had an e coli infection. She was admitted to the
hospital and we have been getting several updates
on her condition each week.
Isabella's extended family has set up a fund for
her at a local bank, Claremont Savings Bank. My La
Leche League is planning to contribute to that
fund and we are holding a fundrasiser through the
end of this month to generate funds. Natural
Family Boutique's usual contribution to La Leche
League is 15%. I am personally matching this
amount so that 30% of all purchases will go to the
Isabella fund.
I am expecting new catalogues to be coming in the
next week and all of these products can be viewed
on the website (www.naturallynhkids.com) as well.
We have just significantly expanded our product
line to include many more products for the home
and family. I would be pleased to assist anyone
with selecting products to meet the needs of their
family.
Natural Family Boutique was started by a former La
Leche League leader and the products fully support
the mission and values of LLL. I hope you will
find that this company is a good match for your
family's needs and your gift-giving needs.
All products can be viewed and ordered online at
www.naturallynhkids.com at your convenience
through the end of the month. Please include our
fundraiser number #4747 with the order so that it
is credited to Isabella. We will take orders
through the end of July. Products usually ship 2
weeks from the order submission. If you have any
questions about the company or products, please
contact me at (603) 448-0226 or
naturallyNHkids@aol.com. Please forward this e-
mail to anyone you feel may be interested in
ordering these products.
Thank you in advance for your support of La Leche
League of the Upper Valley and your interest in
raising funds for Isabella and her family.
Warm regards,
Annie Hood

**************************************************
Any one who orders from me at
http://www.AngelsandZebrasShoppe.thegiftlane I
will take 15% off your order. This will also go
the fund for Isabella. Call your order in directly
to me using my other e-mail address.
Irishann@aol.com and mention Isabella's name. I
will take the 15% off and send it to the La Leche
legue for Isabella. If you read this and don't
want to order I am sure a spirtual offering would
be nice. She needs all the prayers she can use
right now.
I will keep you posted on her recovery.
Thank you
from Elnora at Annieannesgarden
