Default St. Baldrick's

Hey guys,
Its that time of year again. St. baldrick's is coming to the Cresskill Fire Department on June 21st 2008.
while I understand this is a tough time for all of us, we certainly do not have it nearly as tough as these kids that have to live with this disease. I would appreciate it if some of you could help me reach my goal by donating to the cause. Last year we raised about $47k and would like to break that this year. If you guys can and would like to donate to the cause please go to: St. Baldrick's Foundation - Welcome then to DONATE NOW on the right side, put in my last name Hecht, then there I am.
I do appreciate it and I do understand that this is a tough time.
Thank you all.

My son is in his third year of remission for Medulloblastoma, brain tumor, and every year St. Lukes Mountain States Tumor Institute of Boise raises money for St. Baldricks. There is alot of money raised for breast cancer research but very little money in comparison is raised for most childhood cancer research. It's hard to see these kids go thru hell the way they do. My son didn't complain about any of the radiation or chemotherapy treatments, and the Lord knows he has every right to pitch a fit. In the last year my wife and I knew two beautiful little girls that passed because of this nasty disease. http://www.mtexpress.com/index2.php?ID=2005120010 Cancer sucks!
