Aggie showed me this post about the state of Fabella Hospital from chuvaness’ blog.
Just look at them. Your child didn’t have to share his/her crib when she was born right? Imagine if she had to because there were too many newborns and not enough beds for them. Some of these babies

They held an auction for an Hermes bag wherein the proceeds will go to their Fabella fund. If you’d like to help, you can make a donation via paypal on chuvaness’ blog or at momsformoms.multiply.com.
Here’s a portion of what the hospital needs:
CONSUMABLES (needed on a regular basis):
- diapers
- linens (crib sheets, receiving blankets, etc)There are already two (2) potential donors for linens. One is in the garments business and is willing to donate surplus cloth from their production. Another is an airline that’s willing to give a crate full of blankets regularly, but is being taxed by our beloved government. Can anyone help us resolve this?
For those interested to give diapers, I personally suggest you get them from Handy Dandy Diapers who has pledged to give a pack of diapers to Fabella for every 10 packs they sell.
