"It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness 3rd Annual Blog Hop & Challenge

Hello Blogging Friends!!

Welcome to my post for the "It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness 3rd Annual Blog Hop and Challenge.

 

My daughter, Julie, was diagnosed with Turner Syndrome at 6 weeks of age.  She is 33 years old now and I am amazed at how few people are aware of Turner Syndrome!  I have made it my mission to bring as much awareness of TS to as many people as I can!  I am a board member for the Turner Syndrome Foundation here in NJ and I volunteer on the TSF Awareness Committee!  I am hoping with more awareness we can get the medical field to do some much needed research on how TS affects females through their lifetime.

Here is a picture of Julie and Me at the "Take A Step for TS" back in October 2020.

Julie is the happiest and kindest person I know!  She is my hero!  She never had a bad word to say about anyone.  She has many specialist that she sees, but she loves going to the doctors!  All her doctors love her!  Actually anyone who meets Julie falls in love with her!

I am very fortunate that the Crafting Community is such a generous community and that so many Companies and Card Designers have joined me to spread awareness!!  Please shop at the Sponsors stores and please leave some love on the awesome Card Designers Blogs!!

Twenty~three Caring and Generous Sponsors are helping bring Turner Syndrome Awareness to the Public!  To win one of the Sponsor prizes you have to make a card that is feminine and has an uplifting or encouraging message, write a post on your blog about it including details on how you made the card and the products used.  Your blog post has to link back to the original My Turner Syndrome Journey Blog here:  https://myturnersyndromejourney.blogspot.com/   

The winners will be announced on that same blog on Saturday, March 13th, 2021.

My TS related project is inspired by the TSA official Mood Board created by Jan Mahew:

I took Black ink and stamped the sentiment from the Unity Stamp Company Camille stamp set onto the Green paper. I took the Pink Heart that I had in my stash and added that over the sentiment onto the card.  I put some glitter on the wings and I added some Pink sequins to the card.

"It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness 2nd Annual Blog Hop

Hello Blogging Friends!!

Welcome to my post for the GIGANTIC "It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness 2nd Annual Blog Hop!  

More than 32 years ago my daughter, Julie, was diagnosed with Turner Syndrome. I found that many doctors were not familiar with TS and for me this is where my journey began.  I spent hard days and long nights trying to learn everything I could about TS and how I could help my daughter.  Receiving the diagnosis was only the first step on a lifelong path of searching for acceptance and understanding.

TS is a complex condition with ear and hearing issues being one aspect, which Julie faced.  She had numerous ear infections and eventually needed surgery to put tubes in her ears.  I informed the ENT that TS girls ears were different but the surgery failed ~ a situation that could have been avoided with awareness and education. Without experienced professionals to guide us, making medical decisions for Julie was an ongoing struggle.  After this, we decided to commute to Children's Hospital in Philadelphia where the specialists were more familiar with TS.

When Julie was an infant, the geneticist told my husband and me to keep Julie's TS diagnosis a secret because others would treat her differently.  I now know that staying silent will not help my daughter, or any girl affected by TS, access the care she needs.  Working together to raise a greater awareness encourages the medical field to do much needed research on how TS affects girls and women throughout their lives.  This is the reason I started this Turner Syndrome Awareness Blog Hop!!  I am very fortunate that the Crafting Community is such a generous community and that so many Companies and Card Designers have joined me to spread awareness!!  Please shop at the Sponsors stores and please leave some love on the awesome Card Designers Blogs!!

Prize Winners will be announced on February 15, 2020.

Thirty-six caring Sponsors and nine DT Members are offering prizes to commenters and they are helping bring Turner Syndrome Awareness to the Public. For details on how you might win any of these fabulous prizes, please see Lori's TS home page. Thanks for learning about Turner Syndrome.

No One Is You

Hello Blogging Friends!

Today I have another card for that I made for the "It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness Blog Hop live on Saturday, February 1st at 6:00 am EST.  

Ingredients:

The Ton Transformation stamp set

Neenah Solar White paper

Neenah Desert Storm paper

Pink paper

Black ink

Copic markers

Distress tool

For this 6 x 6 card card I started with Neenah Desert Storm paper to make the card base.  I took some Pink paper, distressed the edges with my distress tool and added it to the card base.  I took a piece of Neenah Solar White paper, Black ink and the Transformation stamp and stamped that onto the paper.  I colored it in with Copic markers.  I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set with black ink over the butterfly and I added it to the card.

Here is the reason I think this card is perfect to represent Turner Syndrome:

Turner Syndrome and the Butterfly

The butterfly has become the symbol for "Turner Girls". Just like a butterfly, they are considered fragile and beautiful miracles. Turner Syndrome may also cause a myriad of health complications, such as heart defects, learning disabilities and infertility, according to the Mayo Clinic. Sept 14, 2013.

Because it represents femininity, strength, and uniqueness, the butterfly was designated by TSSUS to become the Turner Syndrome symbol. "Butterflies fly on their own which is our hope for our girls."

I hope you will hop along with us on Saturday, February 1st, for the "It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness Blog Hop!!

Thanks for stopping by!
