Dear Friends,

   First, I want to thank you for the beautiful website you have created. When my daughter Hannah was diagnosed with a Rhabdoid Tumor of the Kidney in 1993, her father and I struggled to find information about the disease and would have been comforted to share our journey with other parents who could appreciate where we were. We were not so "lucky" as the families you are now helping, so thank you for what you are giving them.

   My first book, "Hannah's Gift", has been published by Bantam. It was released last week. Today I received an e-mail from a woman named LeeAnn Clayton whose daughter Emma is one of the angels on your website. LeeAnn read my book and suggested that I check out the work you are doing.

   I would love to share "Hannah's Gift" with families who visit your site. It has been endorsed by Pat Loder, the Executive Director of Compassionate Friends (a national organization for bereaved parents), as well as by other noted authors like Marianne Williamson and Annie Lamott.

Thank you,

Maria Housden

We have used this money to help purchase books and crafts for the children at Childrens Hospital of Minneapolis and have bought a set of musical bells for the Osseo Church of the Nazarene where Michael and his family attend church.
