Seeds of Hope

Many of you have been following the battle of little Patrick Chance in his fight against Neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer. I spoke to my garden buddy (Patrick's grandmother), Kris, yesterday, and found out Patrick has more tumors in skull and chest.



Needless to say, the rest of day was spent thinking and praying for this young life. Kris has worked tirelessly to raise money for the Press On Fund which supports Neuroblastoma research. Neuroblastoma is a cancer of the sympathetic nervous system. It is believed that immature nerve cells get mixed signals and develop into blastomas(tumors) and never make it to mature normal nerve cells. The cause of Neuroblastoma is still unknown.

Kris pleads for our prayers for Patrick and his family. She has worked so hard selling "seeds of hope", Patrick's Amaryllis bulbs & paperwhites at Christmas and driving the "Johnny Hensley and the Red Hots" concert last year. All to raise money for Childhood Cancer research.
