Six of us Icompositions artists, Myself, Macoco, Garni, Lafayette, Sisters,and Djev aka (oOo)have come together to create a song of love and inspiration for my sister Renee
Who recently lost her right leg just below the knee do to complications to diabetes.
I told Macoco I wanted a song that would inspire my rocker chick sister to dance in her wheelchair. I do believe we have accomplished that!
The song is called Take My Hand The song will be available to purchase for a small contribution of $1.99
All the proceeds from the purchase of the mp3 will be going to the
Renee Edwards Home Adaptation Fund
It is our small effort as artists to help defray expenses for medical equipment and adapting my sisters home for her life in a wheelchair.
You can learn more about Renee and why we decided to do this by visiting the Music For Renee page
at http://www.tuginternet.com/renee/
I know times are hard all over the world, and that many of us are struggling financially.
However I know from the past when my family and friends held fund raisers to help defray my daughters medical/transplant expenses,
it was the dollar here and dollar there from everyday people that got us through some very hard times. Our hope is this MP3 fundraiser can do the same for my sister
and her family.
Thank you all for your time and consideration! |

Thank you Elaine, for the emotional support as well as supporting our effort by purchasing Renee's song.! Love you girl!
My sister just heard the song
She cried, and laughed! She loves it!
She said she will definitely be dancing in her wheel chair! She is absolutely dumbstruck how this song was created and wanted me to thank everyone for their work on the song! She knew nothing of the website and cried some more when she viewed it.
She wanted me to pass a big thank you on to all those who are reaching out to help her! |

Renee's situation touched me deeply and I even had tears as Donna told me her little sisters fate.
I was absolutely gobsmaked and honoured to be asked to help with drums and production of this song.
What a thrill it was to work alongside such amazing talents here, names such as RedthruNthru, Macoco, o0o, Sisters and LaFayette
What an amazing buzz this gave me, knowing that this was going to go toward helping Renee, in step 1 of her healing process.
I agree with Ramona (Naaji) above $1.99 isn't going to kill anyone, do yourselves a favour and pitch in and help someone who really needs help, it will mean you get bonus points when your time comes and your ready to enter the pearly gates of heaven, donating a little bit may even give you a luxury room up there
If you can afford it to a small donation on top of the purchase will be gratefully accepted with a lot of love.
Donna, God bless you! You are a unique person and someone who I hold so dear to me as a true friend, your wonderful nature is highlighted here. Renee will eventually come out of this a stronger person.
