Telethon totals

I've already got $335 raised so only $665 to go!! That's pretty cool considering it only really takes 100 people to pledge $10 to reach my goal!! Now I only need 66 more peeps for $10 pledge OR 33 with a $20 pledge. And of course $1000 is a drop in the bucket, did you know that we have already had approx $70,000 in medical bills from The last 6 months of treatment, and that doesn't even count the experimental doses of drugs that lucy takes (they don't bill insurance for that as it's in the millions, we were told one dose of a certain drug she gets cost the same amount as 3 foreign cars) and our co pay would be hovering at about 7,000, and we haven't had to pay a penny. We dont pay for whatever procedures Lucy gets done while at st. Jude, we only cover the costs of local hospital, ambulance fee to Peoria, and any prescription meds we can't get while we are in Memphis or Peoria (which is rare, we have only had two so far). So as you can see we owe them literally a life. Please pass on my donation page listed below. Another fact, for every 1 patient that is treated at st Jude, it impacts approximately 1000 kids in other hospitals around the world. So your donation not only helps Lucy, but it counts towards the 1000 she is representing. Thank you!!
