Support St. Jude

Hey everyone. Wow, has it really been ten weeks since I went to Memphis? It doesn't seem like it has been that long! I know that some of you will be receiving tax refunds soon. If you haven't been able to keep up with your donations or would like to add a little more, now would be a great time to do so. You should already have $20 saved. I know most people count on their refunds for many things but please take a little out to put with your St. Jude money, even five or ten dollars would help.

Jake's Aunt Mo's #5 motivation: Partners in Hope and generous donations: Because of people who give to St. Jude, cures are found. And because of this, we have Carson, Corbin, Allen, and Brady, among others who are going to get to grow up and be what they have always wanted to be. For this mile, give thanks to all the people around the world who give to St. Jude. And commit to supporting St. Jude for the rest of your life...TEAM JAKE 2008...Be there!!!

My motivation to you:
What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited...It cannot cripple LoveIt cannot shatter HopeIt cannot corrode FaithIt cannot destroy PeaceIt cannot kill FriendshipIt cannot suppress MemoriesIt cannot silence CourageIt cannot invade the SoulIt cannot steal eternal LifeIt cannot conquer the Spirit.

Would you be able to BELIEVE and live these words if you were faced with Cancer? These kids do, just by following their sites I have learned this. They can receive chemo, which usually leaves them with no hair and no strength (and many other things) but yet they continue to live on... with much love and courage. And in the midst of their battle they care so much for others, you should read some of the stories of these children wanting to do for other children. So there is no excuse that we can not help!
Two weeks ago my motivation was Madelyn. Just so you know, she is still here enjoying time with her family. Please drop by and let her family know you're thinking of them, www.caringbridge.org/tn/madelyn
And I agree with Mo, TEAM JAKE 2008, be there! You will not regret it! I promise!
Love to all,
Zhohn
P.S. Please, if you can, donate blood!
