A very close friend of mine found out last week that his two year-old daughter has A.L.L. (acute lymphoblastic leukemia). In the span of a couple hours, they went from having a fussy girl with a nagging cold to a fussy girl with leukemia. She started chemo that afternoon, and was released from the hospital five days later.
Dave (with his wife Elise) started a blog to track Hannah’s progress through this ordeal. They’re a strong family, with tremendous family support. Good luck, guys. You have our love and our prayers.
For anyone who’s interested, you can donate to the Leukemia Foundation online. If you donate online, add in my info to notify me of the gift, and I’ll let the Cutlers know about your contribution. (FYI: Rick Klau, 1416 Oswego Road, Naperville, IL 60540.)
