Jessie selected for cancer scholarship!

Jessie has been selected to receive a scholarship from a charity called StudentsWithCancer.org !  (facebook link is http://www.facebook.com/studentswithcancer?ref=ts ) Students with Cancer is a 501c3 charitable organization that helps support College and Graduate students in the US that are battling cancer. This scholarship is very important to Jessie because it gives her hope and something to look forward to, mainly going to college!
Any donations to this charity are greatly appreciated. No amount is too small. All you need to do is go to their website and click the donate button. www.StudentsWithCancer.org. I understand that with the hurting economy, individuals may not have the funds and resources to donate, and I truly do appreciate you taking the time to consider supporting this cause that is very dear to my heart.

Thanks everyone!


Now for the update: She is doing fine. Her counts are still at zero. I guess that means the chemo did it's job. The nutritionist tells her to eat protein which will help her body make new cells. I have been bringing lots of protein rich foods for her to eat. She doesn't much like the hospital food. She lost 10 pounds so far, but gained back .4 kg as of this morning. Maybe that means she's turning the corner! I hope she gets her immunity back fast. Everyone is getting tired of me asking them to sanitize, sanitize, sanitize!!!
