[OT] Little Charmaine, DONT GIVE UP! Hits: [1489] DONT GIVE UP! Little Charmaine is down with cancer Neuroblastoma, stage 4, high risk. This is a form of cancer that occurs in infants and young children. For Charmaine case, hers is high risk as her cancer has spread to her bone marrow and bones. Her doctor, Dr. Aung, has sent her family an email saying that they can bring little Charmaine to New York for treatment, however they need to pay an upfront deposit of USD $350,000 (About SGD $507,955 basing on the exchange rate of USD $1: SGD $1.45) *** THE HAPPY KIDS *** "...they knew their mum was downstair on the way up, the kids rushed to the lift and waited for her there. Kids are always kids. They decided to play hide-and-seek with Cynthia..." - An ordinary moment at extraordinary times A single parent, cynthia is no longer working and is looking after Charmaine full-time. It takes a lot of energy, concentration & tears taking care someone you love so dearly and have to see them suffer. I understand. They manage to raise about $50,000, including their own savings, but still it's far from what it's needed. How to contribute/donate?
