Keep us posted on the fundraiser.

I will give you all the short story on this. It is a sad story and...there is life other than cars and this is as real as it gets.

My next door neighbor's 3 year old daughter has two forms of leukemia (rare types). They did an international donor search and found a donor just in time....this was about 9 months ago. The girl has been doing well and then all of a sudden the leukemia is back with a vengeance. She returns tomorrow for the City of Hope and it is not looking good.

She is a real cutie...white blonde, big blue eyes. Her name is Zosia ("Zosh-ia"). I just happened to be with her Aunt Kasia (my daughter's best friend who works in DC) eating dinner, here in Maryland, when the Aunt got the phone call from her sister advising the leukemia confirmation. Obviously dinner was ruined.

I didn't sleep last night thinking about her (as opposed to Orange Krate). Zosia also has a 1 year old brother. One of Zosia's great grandfathers just died too. This is hitting the family all at once. The financial thing has been a nightmare and getting worse.

We are all looking for a miracle but before the transplant she had almost zero percent chance of survival. I will keep the group in the loop. I will know more when I return to California tomorrow.

Prayers for Zosia and her family.
