For the next 3 days, many blogs will be running a special that is benefiting the sweet Barlow family.
Shortly before midnight on September 9th, Jenny Barlow called 911 because her husband Harold was behaving erratically. At the hospital, he was diagnosed with a serious brain infection and moved to the ICU, where he fell into a coma-like state.
Over the next 10 days, their family experienced a series of ups and downs on the most horrific roller coaster ride you can imagine as they’d receive hopeful news followed by a setback.
On September 18th, Harold passed away despite everything the doctors had done for him. As you can imagine, Jenny’s heart broke, and not just for herself, but for her five beautiful children as well, who hadn’t seen their dad in 10 days and won’t see him again this side of heaven.
As a way to help their family while still providing a great resource for you, a small group of bloggers put together a pretty amazing benefit sale, which includes the 9 ebooks listed below plus the complete set of Life Your Way printables. The set is worth more than $50, but will be available for just $5 for three days only, starting at midnight ET on Tuesday, 10/2. 100% of the proceeds go to the family.

My heart breaks for this family and all they have been through. I will pray for their healing and comfort.
I just wanted your readers to know that I have already purchased several of these ebooks for full price, and every single one is well worth it. Even though I own over half of them, I still bought the bundle 1) to support this grieving family with a very do-able micro donation, and 2) this is truly an amazing value for resources which will definitely benefit any family.
Thank you Paul for sharing the bundle link, and letting us know how we can support this family!
My heart goes out to this beautiful young family, I will keep them in my prayers.
My heart goes out to this family. I couldn’t imagine what Jenny Barlow is going through. I pray for her strength and healing as well as the kiddos. Thanks for letting us help in a small way! Just purchased this to help.
I don’t have an e-reader but would like to donate – any suggestions?
I think it also comes in a form to download on your desk top.
Hi Jillian!
The ebooks actually come in PDF, which you can read right on your computer! Or you can donate directly through this link: http://www.youcaring.com/fundraiser_details?fundraiser_id=9680&url=thebarlowfamilyfundraiser
