Sharpie Drive for Batson!



Ok Mississippi folks, it's time for another Sharpie Drive for Blair E. Batson Children's Hospital! When our heart 'cough' pillows are given to pediatric heart patients in the intensive care unit, they get a Sharpie marker for doctors, nurses, family, and friends to sign the twill side of the pillow as a keepsake. Any donations are greatly appreciated! We need the regular, fine point, black Sharpie markers. I believe a 2-pack can be purchased for under $2.

Here is a photo of one of the pillows given to soften the blow of coughing (which is a vital part of recovery) after heart surgery. We also have larger pillows for bigger kids.



Sharpie donations may be dropped off to Gayden Carpenter, Cardiology Social Worker, at Batson, Mitchell Beauman at Bowmar Baptist Church in Vicksburg, Barbara Willingham at Willingham's in downtown Vicksburg, or dropped off/mailed to my home in Pearl. I am also in Phillip and Melissa James' Life Group class at First Baptist Brandon which meets at 9:45 if you would like to leave some there. Please message me for my address if needed!

Thank you ALL in advance for your donations and prayers for this ministry!
♥ Megan Bell
