She'll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.
" s8 ]3 ~8 u" V; ^  pBy you sending this to as many people as possible, you can give her and her family a little hope, because with every name that this is sent to, The American Cancer Society will donate 3 cents per name to her treatment and recovery plan. One guy sent this to 500 people! So I know that we can at least send it to 5 or 6. It's not even your money, just your time!
