Sarah Day, Sunday, March 18 - A day for sharing with our BJD friends

[kellyhime]

Some of you may know of Sarah Schoch, the sweet girl that Make-A-Wish and Volks helped fulfill her dream of going to Tenshi no Sato in 2005.  You may also have read her most recent post and know that things are not going so well for Sarah.  After she made this post, she didn't respond for a while and a number of us got very concerned about her, but with the help of Volks, we finally got her contact information.  I sent an email to her last week and got the sweetest response.  She is an amazing young woman, whose bravery and maturity go far beyond her 18 years.  She was truly surprised that so many people in the BJD community care for her and since she is no longer able to go to school and see her friends, she was comforted to discover that she had so many "virtual" friends.

I think that a lot of us realize just how close the BJD community is, but I was thinking that it would be nice to really show it.  So, I'm proposing that next Sunday, March 18, we all post in our LJs special pictures of our dolls that remind us of this friendship to honor Sarah and each other.  If possible, please don't friends-lock the post and add a link to Sarah's journal, so that she can find the pictures.

I hope that a lot of you will decide to participate in "Sarah Day".  I'll be posting a reminder in the middle of the week.  Please feel free to share this post or do an original post about it on your LJ.  The more who know about it, the better! ^_^
