Hey everyone! Back again to get all of you to help kids with cancer. This one is easy-peasy. Go to this twitter link and choose Children's Cancer Research Fund. If we get the most votes we get $1 million

We have so much research to fund but as pediatric cancer gets a very small amount from all the government grants out there. Researchers depend on private organizations like Children's Cancer Research Fund to get treatments from the lab to the bedside of these kids.
In the past 2 weeks I've connected with more families. One family adopted a baby last summer. A few months later they found tumors in his brain and kidney. I've seen pictures of this little guy. He is only 2 months older then Penny so you can believe I started crying when I heard his story. He is undergoing some new treatments as his cancer is difficult to beat. Through all of this his mom is amazing. Her faith is so strong and she wants to do something NOW to get research going. That's where all of you come in...go vote and pass the word on via blogs/facebook/twitter/email! We have till May 10th.
