am excited to announce today that for the month of August, Kate
McRae and her family will be the recipients of our handcrafted cards.

Monday
June 29th, 2009 was supposed to be a day filled with summer fun. The
kids and I were going to the water park to celebrate summer. However, I
noticed that a slight tremor in her right hand that had developed over
the past few days had notably worsened. We decided to take her to her
Pediatrician, just for safe measure. A CT of Kate's head was ordered. We
proceeded to Phoenix Childrens Hospital for a stat CT of her head.
At
5:30 I, Holly, Kate's mom, was taken into a room alone and told Kate
had a massive tumor on the left temporal lobe of her brain. The world
seemed to stopped for us that day. I called her dad and through sobs
told him to come to the hospital quickly. Our long journey had begun.
Kate was directly admitted to the PICU. One minute thoughts of the water
park the next our child is critically ill in the intensive care unit
awaiting emergent brain surgery within a matter of days. We would have
never chosen to be a part of this journey with childhood cancer, but it
was chosen for us, and our sweet Kate.
Here is how you can help. Submit one card by August 31st to:
