I’m “going under the knife” at 5:30 a.m. tomorrow (Friday – 8/6/21!)

Thoughts and prayers are lovely! BUT what I would really love is a bunch of contributions in support of the work of Lead Safe Mama, LLC too!

Summers are already predictably hard (in terms of not being able to keep up with expenses to cover the costs of the business)… but throw some medical complications on top of that and it becomes nearly impossible! Each day we’re falling a bit more behind and won’t be able to catch up until October most likely (when I am fully recovered from my surgery.)

If you appreciate the work we do here and can contribute something it will make a big difference. All contributions are tracked and counted as business income for Lead Safe Mama, LLC. (a woman-owned small business based in Portland, Oregon.) We are not a non-profit so contributions are not tax-deductible. Instead we are a unique small business in which the work is driven by and funded by readers like you. You help to dictate what we test and report on (through your comments and questions) and you help to cover the cost of the work (by sharing our posts and making contributions when you can.)
