Help four year old Sophie fight cancer!

[Autumnlicious]

Update:

Hi everyone,

I wanted to thank everyone again for their support and kindness regarding my niece Sophie and the generous donation given in behalf of [redacted] and the generous individual donations of many of the employees and the friends that they forwarded the link to, and therefore wanted to give an update on her condition. She is responding well to the chemotherapy and the nodules in her lung and massive tumor on her ribs is shrinking. Unfortunately, she has been in the hospital almost the entire time because of high fever, which brings up fears of viral and/or bacterial infection. In about a couple of months, they will be cutting out several of her ribs that have the cancer, and if any nodules remain in her lungs (currently there are two 1 centimeter nodules they do not think that the chemo will destroy completely), they will also cut out those affected areas of her lungs. With any luck, this will be the end of it, but this type of cancer is eighty percent likely to reoccur. We are hoping that her genetically passed Irish luck will get her past these odds but these odds strain even Irish luck. I am including a link to the latest article about Sophie and a fundraiser for her, and if any of you happen to be in southern California at this time, I look forward to seeing you there.
