A fourteen year old girl, Brittany, who's been our neighbor at Packard hospital, is desparately in need of both blood and a bone marrow match. She's very sick with leukemia, and needs frequent tranfusions, but her blood type, B Neg, is very rare.
Please spread the word: Donate for Brittany Marelich at

They need other blood types just as much. Our friend Ben has started his high dose chemo and will be needing daily transfusions, as Jacob will when he starts his bone marrow transplant in two or three weeks.
It makes me feel so fortunate that Jacob already got his stem cells banked!
We go in for the Cyber Knife fitting and planning session tomorrow at 7:30 am. Yikes!
