VBA: Extracting Sheets as Attachments, Attachment Defined by Varying Range

Found this code online, but making adjustments. I have a worksheet in my workbook (say Sheet5) that has a list of user defined sheet names (say the range is defined from C2:C20 in sheet5). I need to send an email with the sheets defined from the user that are listed in C2:C20 as attachments.

So essentially tell Excel, "only email the sheets that are defined in range C2:C20 in Sheet5" - the values can vary depending on the user (so sometimes the user might put in 2 named worksheets, sometimes they might put in 5). The sheets that are defined by the user will always be found in the current workbook. Additionally I have one sheet that will always be named "Sheet6", and will always need to be sent with the other attachments.

I'm having trouble coding this, below I bolded the portion that I'm making adjustments to. But I can't get the code to work the way I want to. Sometimes I'll get an out of range errors, other times it'll create a workbook with Sheet 6, and the last user defined sheet name (so if the user inputted 3 sheet names in C2:C20, it only pulls the last sheet name inputted).
