Amazing!

(I cannot get credit for this picture. ;) His mom sent it to me.)

Have you ever met someone and immediately felt like you have known them forever? :) That is exactly how I feel about this little boy's mom. This little boy goes to my school. He loves to make cupcakes and he has the sweetest family. He was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma (a form of cancer) months ago. The two teachers/speech pathologist he is sitting with are AMAZING to say the least. They participated in a Shave-A-Thon to raise money for cancer and even shaved their heads. HOW ADMIRABLE! Your heart really has to be in the right place to go into teaching. These two have definitely went above their calling.
This little boy is currently getting treatment at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. They do research at the hospital and all of the money goes straight to the research, which will hopefully one day cure all of these kids. Many people have asked me what they can do to help or where the best place would be to send money to. If you have any extra spare change please donate to help with the research for childhood cancer.
You can make your checks out to:

Make sure you tell them that it is for Research for Childhood Cancer . I have met many amazing families over this past summer that are going through their child having cancer. Baptist Hospital seems to be their second home. They have their favorite rooms, nurses, things that they do, etc. They all have become very close and are truly amazing. They are extremely strong and are all sticking together through this battle each and everyday. Each day is definitely a gift for all of us. Please donate if you can.
