Can anyone tell me where my daughter left this book?  It’s a library book and I’m tired of paying for library books.

The three of us were upstairs in my bedroom and then Alex went downstairs with Pop Pop. When she came back I asked her if she had given Pop Pop my kisses. She said yes, so I said to her that I was going to wipe off Pop Pop kisses. I wiped both sides of her face and she then began to tune up as if she was going to cry. I said, what’s wrong. She said, “You wiped off Daddy’s kisses too.” I asked her if you had locked your kisses in and she said no. I was too tickled so I opened my hand and said, “Well, let me put them back on. Which side of your face did he kiss you?’ She told me and I rubbed my hand over that side of her face and her tears disappeared.

Someone at work sent me an email about this little girl that has a brain tumor. Here is an excerpt from the web site her family has set up:

On January 7, 2008, our lives were changed forever when our 10 year old daughter Emily was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in her left thalamus. Emily’s brain tumor, a pediatric low grade astrocytoma (PLGA) is the most common type of childhood brain tumor and yet, has historically received little, if any, dedicated funding or research. Consequently, there are few treatment options available, and those that are available are invasive, toxic and mostly ineffective.

Emily is determined to change all this and she has set her sights on raising $1 million to help fund PLGA dedicated research by December 31st, 2008. We, her family, have partnered with The Pediatric Low Grade Astrocytoma Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charity (founded in August 2007) to help raise money for dedicated PLGA research with a goal of developing kinder, gentler and more effective treatments, AND a cure, for the thousands of PLGA children around the world.

I do believe this to be true. Please visit Emily’s website, www.colorforacure.com. You can buy a pixel of color for just one dollar. Each dollar – every cent – goes to PLGA research, and each pixel is added to a picture which is gradually completed as the goal of a million dollars is approached. You can make a difference in a child’s life, and make sure you tell a friend!
