A quick update!

Thank you to all who have sent e-mails, called, and posted comments here on the blog. They have been very encouraging and I am so excited that some of you are finding ways to help these families!

Here are some ideas for those who can't donate blood, platelets, etc. First of all, if you are out of area, go to a hospital near you. They are all in need and greatly appreciate the donations. Second, do you know a great artist, musician, anybody famous? Could you get them to make a donation of artwork for auction, play a benefit concert or donate proceeds from an already scheduled concert, or make a guest appearance? The possible ways to help are endless! Of course, if you have extra change lying around and are looking for a good way to donate, I believe every family I have mentioned has a fund set up for them or you could make a donation to CHLA, an organization that helps families with sick children, or a hospital near you!

For those who have asked for more information on Hailey Kent, I didn't put any links up for her because much of the information on them is old (pre- her bone marrow transplant). Since you've asked, I will provide some links. Also, I am including the link to the CHLA care pages for those who wanted access to her care page.

http://www.carepages.com/ (Care Pages website...go to the new visitors section on the right and sign in, then request the care page titled: 'haileyjoykent' Just like that...no spaces)

http://www.haileyjoy.com/ (mostly older information and a prayer chain)

http://www.ryanandhaileykent.com/ (and underdeveloped, but super cute website that highlights the twins acting and modeling career before Hailey's diagnosis...many of the links don't work)

Thank you again to everyone who has showed both me and these children support. I appreciate it and I know they do too!

Also, a huge thanks to everyone who has wished me well on starting school again as a full time student tomorrow! It is so very appreciated!
