Can You Help?

The family could use a variety of things, which we list here for your consideration: a tricycle for Amelia’s therapy, size six tops and pants for Amelia, a gas dryer, microwave, dishes, pots and pans, a cable and DVD-ready television for some entertainment, and a department store gift card so Amelia’s 15-yearold sister Samantha can buy a sweater and jeans.

When she was almost two, she was diagnosed with a brain 4-29-09 karen/janine tumor. She had surgery in Philadelphia and received chemotherapy. At the time, EmmanuelHelp3x.75(4-29-09) her prognosis as result of the surgery and 3 x .75 chemo was cautiously optimistic. Sometimes the surgery will not get all of the cancer and it will grow back. Within a year of the treatments, she began to have seizures and was diagnosed as having epilepsy. She was transferred to the hospital for tests and care. The seizures occurred on and off for awhile.
