I love all of the great find and tips you have provided through Broke-Ass Bride. Some of the tips have proven invaluable thus far for BK (my fiance) and I. Blogging will begin tomorrow, along with a few recipe emails. We also plan on donating later in the month!
This is a great idea and we hope you can get enough money to cover your current expenses and more.

Hi Dana,
So far I’ve added a banner to your blog to the side bar of my own at http://TheFlirtyBlog.com
Will also be sending you a recipe in the next day or two for the most comforting and decadent mashed potato recipe.
Will blog about the fundraiser and donate asap.
So sorry to hear you are faced with such challenges. Asking for help is so hard but once you do it’s so liberating. And in an odd way, asking for help is rewarding not because of the money and donations but because people’s willingness to help shows you how much they care about you.

Dana,
The Southern Fried Bride is joining in to help one of my favorite bridal bloggers and wedding inspirations! I’m sending one of my recipes and spreading the word through my blog, Twitter and Facebook pages! You’re in my thoughts and prayers!
Hi!
I can’t really cook but I’m willing to donate $20… and I will also try to find a simple recipe! I have also put Dishing for Dana’s banner and story in my blog, hoping that passer-bys would have a read and donate!… IF I could get traffic at my blog.
Much love to a strong woman with a great sense of humour (Aussie spelling!)!
