OT - Need purrs

Of course. Purrs and prayers on the way. You are right. Miracles
are out there to be had. I'm so sorry yet another child is suffering
so.

So you may remember me talking about my niece, Heather, whose daughter,
Malorie, now 13, but was barely 6 months old, (if that) when she was
diagnosed with retinoblasphoma. It took intense, bleeding-edge medical
technology to treat this very pernicious cancer. [St. Luke's Children's
Hospital is the best children's hospital world-wide, and deserves whatever
honors, praise and donations - they never turn away a child who needs help.]

After nine *years* of fighting, they finally had to remove her left eye -
but they *did* save her life. However, like my granddaughter, Brooke, even
though the cancer was "cured", they told her that she should be on the alert
for other types of cancer for the rest of her life.

In another incident of doctor(s) not knowing their @$$ from a hole in the
ground, they would not pay attention to her complaining how "thick" her neck
was getting. They just pulled out that old chestnut, "it's just growing
pains!!!?

Her mother, my niece, had sense enough to keep trying to find a doctor to
look for the "real problem" and, unfortunately, they found it. The doctors
diagnosed a malignant tumor growing on and in to her thyroid. They took
only part of the thyroid to get a biopsy. They are planning to remove the
thyroid gland, but other than that I don't know what her treatment may be,
nor even if she has a chance at all.

So, sorry for the long and rambling post, but could you please send purrs
for my grandniece
