Description:
This is the first swap that I have created and it is not even for me. My mother had a stroke on September 29th of this year and we are on the long road to recovery. She used to be an avid collector of postcards years ago and I would love to fill her mailbox up with some more carrying well wishes. So the basics.... You will have one swap partner that you send a naked postcard to your swap partner and then a postcard to my mother (at the address provided in the description) with a Hello, and a Well Wish... You choose what to wish for. A happy day, good health, great weather or strawberry shortcake... whatever comes to mind! For the swap partners, I will angel if needed but I hope everyone who signs up honors their commitment. Newbies welcome, we all have to start somewhere.. Postcard is sender's choice, of coarse if you find something that inspires you on your partners profile that always deserves a heart. So to recap, send one naked postcard to your swap partner and one postcard to my mother at: Donna Parrish 3690 Riviera Drive Cumming, GA. 30041 Thank you in advance for helping me brighten my mother's day!

Does your mother have any particular postcard "likes"? Hope she is well -- it is so frustrating sometimes to want your body to do something and have it not follow along -- humor and "feistyness" are great allies in recovery! That is a very lovely picture of her!

@rngstgstll she has been collecting postcards since 1943. She was 5 when she started. So she has a little of everything. I know she does like local cards when available (hard to come by these days) since she loves history. Thank you!

HOI! :D Would it be ok to send pc for your momma w/o joining the swap? ^_^? As a daughter of a stroke patient (father) I know what it's like and I know the importance of having support outside of the family. :D My prayers for your mother.

@Pandabingsu that would be fine and welcomed. It has been such a learning experience and something new comes up every day. Thank you!

Thank you everyone. This fist card arrived today and it brought a smile to her face. She is back in the hospital again and it was nice to have something new for her to look at and do. Brightest Blessings to you all!
