, ^5 F& i! z7 C9 _She'll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.
: [3 O# ]* K# @6 s* H5 N: ?By you sending this to as many people as possible, you can give her and her family a little hope, because with every name that this is sent to, The American Cancer Society will donate 3 cents per name to her treatment and recovery plan. One guy sent this to 500 people! So I know that we can at least send it to 5 or 6. It's not even your money, just your time!: F2 z3 D/ s, D2 C
