We Can Make a Difference, $1 at a Time!

Please indulge me for a few moments, as Jess has been lovely enough to allow me to use her blog to reach everyone who knows, loves, supports and cares for Tuesday and the Whitt family.

If you are like me, Tuesday changed your world.
I went from being a person who knew pediatric cancer was out there to being a person who KNEW pediatric cancer.
Up close. Personal.

Jess and I have talked quite a few times about neuroblastoma….
How is it that a cancer that is so rare, suddenly seems to be showing up everywhere we look? Is it because our eyes are now open to the reality, or is it because this cancer, this horrible, devastating cancer, is becoming less rare?
Whatever the case may be, I hate neuroblastoma.
Hate that it rips families apart.
Hate that so many little ones are suffering.
Hate that for one of the most deadly forms of cancer, that it is also the least funded of all cancers for research.
Why?
Shockingly, the answer is because not enough children get it.

Not enough?????
One child is too many!

These are the faces of neuroblastoma:
Brady, Nathaniel, Adrianna, Connor, William, Haven, Trey, Lukas, Alyssa, Sydney
and of course, Tuesday, just to name a “few”.

I can’t look away and I can’t turn my back.
These babies need us.
All of us.
So, in honor of Tuesday, and for all of these children and for the many, many more who will sadly be diagnosed, I am hosting the first
Tuesday Blog Party.
Photobucket
You can learn all about it HERE.
Please get involved.
For Tuesday.
For the Whitts.
Let’s change the world, $1 at a time.

  17. Lynn says:

    These verses are so very comforting. The Holy Spirit Himself is praying for you!
    Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

    Continuing to lift up prayers to the only One who hears!
    Psalms 27:7-8 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

    Praying right now!
    Psalms 27:13-14 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
