Welcome to the Team Evan site of St. Baldricks! I have been familiar with this organization for a number of years and have contributed in the past through financial donations. It is a great cause and one that I am proud to participate in. This year I will also participate as a shavee for my friends and Collins colleagues, Jeremy and Lindsay Ginter. I wish I had more to give, hair and money, but am hoping that by expanding the network of supporters, we can supplement the few remaining hairs on my head with a sizeable financial contribution to this worthy cause. Jeremy and Lindsay had their first child (Evan) eight months ago. On December 22, 2008, Evan, at a mere 7 months of age, was diagnosed with Type 1 pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB). PPB is an extremely rare form of cancer. Children's Hospital in Minnesota only sees one of these cases every few years and there are only 10-20 cases diagnosed in the entire United States each year. Fortunately, Evan was diagnosed early and a couple of the leading experts for PPB are actually located in the Twin Cities. I cannot even image what Jeremy and Lindsay are going through as parents. The following is a link to Evans CaringBridge page if you are interested in learning about him and/or keeping up with his progress: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/evanginter I have known Jeremy and Lindsay since I joined Collins over three years ago. Lindsay is from ND and both are Sioux hockey fans so I know you'd like them too. Please join me and the rest of Team Evan in making a difference. Your thoughts, prayers and support are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
