On the right is a photo of an adorable baby boy and a link to his blog, "Baby James." This little guy and his family have had a pretty rough go of it for a while now. He has a form of cancer called Wilms' Tumor.
Fortunately they live here and have access to the amazing docs, nurses, and staff at Mayo. Unfortunately, little James' prognosis is not great. He has a wonderful mom and dad and a big sister named Mira. This family has been so strong, but I am sure the stress over James' health, finances, and life in general is getting harder to deal with every day.
There is a fundraiser in Stewartville coming up June 23. They need your donations, your attendance, your support.
Visit the blog. Read the story. Offer up a prayer or a wish for health. Send a check. Donate something. Go to the auction.
Thank you.
Mom, wife, daughter, sister, friend. Scrapbooker, family historian, reader, cook, photographer. Volunteer. Political junkie. Springsteen fan. Loves deeply, strives daily to be a cheerful, kind and generous person. Fails regularly. Snarky, judgy and more than a little blunt. Some people don't appreciate my style. If you're one of them, that's ok. Get your own blog.
He is very handsome! Sending up prayers and positive thoughts.
