January 27, 2010 THE VILLADOM TIMES IV • Page 11 Emmanuel asks... Can You Help? New Year -- new help needed: Amelia is now five years old. When she was almost two years old, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. She had surgery in Philadelphia and received chemotherapy. At the time, her prognosis as result of the surgery and 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 with epilepsy. She was transferred to a hospital for tests and care. The seizures occurred on and off for awhile. This past year, the seizures started happening again, and she received two surgeries in New York at Beth Israel Hospital. She now goes for physical therapy, vision therapy, 4-29-09 karen/janine and medical care. The seizures are gone due to some new revolutionary EmmanuelHelp2x.75(4-29-09) surgery. Amelia’s mom suffers from depression and really cannot 3 x .75 provide care for the family. Amelia’s dad, Charles, lost his job because he has had to take over the parental duties. A variety of community groups have helped this family when medical care was not available. The family could use a variety of things, which we list here for your consideration: size 6 tops and pants for Amelia, a department store gift card so 15-year-old sister Samantha can buy a sweater and jeans, a gas dryer, microwave, dishes, pots and pans, and a cable and DVD ready television for some entertainment.
