Dear Family and Friends,
It’s that time of year again! On March 9th I will be shaving me head for St. Baldrick’s, making it the third year in a row! As many of you know on March 20th 2010 my cousin Emily, 21 and a newlywed, was rushed to the E.R. with a migraine. The doctors discovered a tumor on the back of Emily’s brain; and diagnosed it as a malignant Medulloblastoma. Emily had to undergo multiple surgeries and treatments to remove the cancer. Three years later, after surgery and chemotherapy, Emily is doing well. Praise God! In honor of Emily I will be participating in St. Baldrick’s. St. Baldrick’s is a foundation that raises funds for childhood cancer research. Volunteers shave their heads in support of those who have lost their hair from chemotherapy.
This is where I need your support. A donation to St. Baldrick’s would be greatly appreciated. I will shave my head to raise awareness. However, your donation will help find cures and miracles. The best way to donate is online. You can also donate over the phone, by check, or you could give your donation to me and I will take care of it for you. I want to especially ask for your continued prayers for my family and for Emily. Your support and prayers are greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
