Relapsed

Please pray for this little girl who went through transplant and her parents just found out she has relapsed with neuroblastoma. http://www.caringbridge.org/cb/inputSiteName.do?method=search&siteName=elizabethwestberry

Two organizations that I would recommend for anyone who has some extra money sitting around or is looking to donate would be http://www.lunchforlife.org/ or http://www.magicwater.org/ . From what I have read Dr Sholler in Vermont has made great strides in neuroblastoma research. That is where Jack Brown went when MSKCC Sloan told him that they could do nothing else for him when they had a shortage of 3F8 last year. This could be any one of our children at any time. I can't imagine what these families go through on a daily basis. Financially, emotionally it must be devestating. So if you can find it in your hearts these are two great organizations.

Thank you for supporting the MagicWater project! We are a parent-driven grassroots organization that is thankful for parents like you for spreading the word. Dr. Sholler is indeed a light in the dark world of neuroblastoma. Her work is lead by her heart. Not only is she a researcher who works in a lab, she is a pediatric oncologist who sees and treats the children who suffer from this cancer. Thank you.
