Results + HAITI + Seun Adebiyi

Posted in: ,
Firstly, the votes are in and more people want to have Chinedu on the phone. Does she pick the phone? What does he say? Why hasn't he called since? Our next contributor is Mr. FunnyHoneyMoney and the post will be up by Sunday. Remember the giveaway is on till Jan 31 and the first person to comment on the next chapter wins a free copy of my eBook "Love Happens" or you can download it on lulu. Find out more information on my website and enjoy this book trailer video.



Second, I'm sure most people have heard about the earthquake in Haiti. My heart goes out to all the people of that country and I'm praying for them. So many people are dead and more wounded and dying. There are many ways to help and these are just a few. Please do what you can.
Text HAITI to 90999 to donate $10
Text YELE to 501501 to donate $5
Visit www.worldvision.org to donate any amount directly.
Click on the relief button on my sidebar to donate to the American Red Cross.



Finally, I saw this on several places and got this from TORI's blog..."this article online today about 26 year old Seun Adebiyi, born in Lagos, moved here when he was 6 and is a Yale Law grad who is trying to be the FIRST EVER Nigerian Winter Olympian. Except he was diagnosed with cancer. Leukemia.

He's been through weeks and weeks of chemotherapy, but his doctors say his only chance for survival is a bone marrow transplant.

Sadly, only 8% of bone marrow list registrants are of African descent/African American. And for a match, the person needs to be practically IDENTICAL to you. So his chances of finding a match will be upped dramatically if there are more Nigerians on the list."

You can go to Seuns blog to read more. You may be able to help save his life.

  9. Great video, what happened in Haiti is just so heart-breaking. But I agree with Andrea I've heard sadly about some people scamming money out of people who are sending money so I'm being cautious as well.

  27. There are just too many depressing things in the world today. I pray Seun finds a match.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Yeah...just too much sadness everywhere...:(

    and @ Myne How exactly does this interactive story thing work?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Gambling continues to be a strong source of menace to the society but the thing is some people just never learn. James could run but the question is, for how long? I think Iphey needs to alert Ngozi about the situation immediately. . . I'm so loving this tale.
