Getting Home For Her Mother’s Funeral

April 15, 2012 Rachel Ferrucci 3 Comments

Yesterday my daughter’s best friend lost her mother. My daughter was also very close to her mother. For now we’ll call the friend Kim. Kim (27) lives in Idaho with her baby and her boyfriend (who is from there). Kim had some troubles when she was younger and went out to Idaho to start a new life. She spoke with her mom every day and although her mom missed her and her granddaughter to death, she knew it was the best thing for them. Kim is unable to work due to medical issues and stays home and takes care of her baby while her boyfriend works to support them. He doesn’t have a high paying job and they live barely pay check to pay check.

Since Kim has no way to get back home to her family, I decided I would help and reach out to you to help. I tried to think what I can offer you. There are two options:

1. You may know that I have a product line called Touch’d. The organic sugar scrubs are absolutely heaven!! They sell for $36 and I’m offering them to you for $20 plus $6 shipping (US). I will donate the $20 per scrub towards Kim’s plane ticket. I ask that you please share this with your friends and family and I’m hoping the power of social media will get this child home to her mother’s funeral.

To purchase a scrub– email your choice of scent- cucumber melon or tropical paradise – to Rachel(at)RachelFerrucci(dot)com and you can Paypal your donation of $26 to Rachel(at)RachelFerrucci(dot)com

2. Do you have a button you’d like on my site? I offer you 3 months for $25 (125×125).

To purchase button/ad placement– email Rachel(at)RachelFerrucci(dot)com

If we should raise more than the plane ticket, the remainder money will go to the family to help with funeral costs.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart and if there’s something else I can do that will help you to donate please let me know!!!!

<3 Rachel

Why did no one warn us that menopause would turn our bodies into a crime scene… Dryness. Pain. Sneezing roulette. UTIs showing up uninvited. And doctors smiling politely and saying, “That’s just aging.” Cool. Love that for us.

Say Hello to Silky Peach Cream 🍑 A bioidentical estriol cream that works locally to rebuild thinning tissue, restore moisture, and bring back comfort where it actually matters. Not a Band-Aid. Not a $350 prescription. Not a lube that disappears by lunchtime.

Estriol is the gentlest form of estrogen our bodies naturally make, and Silky Peach Cream puts it back exactly where menopause took it away. Over time, tissue rebuilds, moisture returns, and suddenly intimacy doesn’t feel like sandpaper and regret.

Two pumps nightly. Then maintenance. Because it took years to get this dry… it’s okay if it takes a little time to feel normal again.

I’m done whispering about menopause. I got my life back.  And my peach is happy again!

I didn’t expect this to be the hardest part of getting older.

If sex hurts. If you avoid intimacy. If you dread wiping.

It’s not “just dryness.” It’s estrogen loss. And yes, it’s fixable.

Menopause doesn’t ease in quietly. It shows up hot, uncomfortable, and disruptive. And for way too long, women are told to whisper about it or accept it as “just aging.” I’m done with that.

Silky Peach Cream helped restore moisture, rebuild thinning tissue, and bring back comfort where menopause took it away. Not a quick fix. Not a Band-Aid. Just real, gradual relief that made me feel like myself again.

Two pumps. Some patience. And a lot less suffering.

Stop whispering about menopause. You deserve relief. You deserve joy. Your peach deserves to be happy again.

In paid partnership with #NoPainPact and with the support of #VoicesforNonOpioidChoices. 

When I found out I needed surgery, my 1st thought wasn’t the procedure. It was the fear of being handed opioids again with no real choice. After my last surgery, opioids were the only option I had, my insurance didn’t cover the non-opioid alternatives I specifically asked for. That showed me how quickly exposure can happen. Many people don’t realize that about 1 in 10 patients who receive opioids after surgery will struggle with long-term use. That’s nearly 4 million people per year. It’s no secret that opioids can lead to addiction, & we should be much louder about the fact that there are non opioid options that can be used during surgery to manage pain afterwards. 
Medicare already recognizes this & separately reimburses for FDA-approved non-opioid pain treatments, proving these options are real & available. Yet insurance barriers often make them difficult or impossible to access. Instead of making decisions about my recovery with my doctor, insurance policy made them for me. As I prepare for my next surgery, I want access to every option that reduces my exposure. I know how easily things can escalate. I’ve seen opioid use continue far longer than intended. It can tear apart families before anyone realizes what’s happening. What starts as short-term pain management after surgery becomes something no one ever expected, simply because safer options were never offered. It’s frustrating that some major insurers still haven’t expanded coverage the way Medicare has. #UnitedHealthcare is one of the companies whose restrictions make it harder to access FDA-approved non-opioid surgical pain options. Because of their size, these decisions affect millions. Surgery shouldn’t be a gateway to opioid addiction. Medicare covers these options. UnitedHealthcare & others need to do the same so patients aren’t pushed toward opioids by outdated policies. Patients & families deserve better.
