Candles for Kids - Fundraiser for local child
I am doing a local fundraiser for a child who lives near me. Below you will find some information on how you can be of assistance with the families needs.
Tyler is a pretty typical 6th grade boy. He is 11 years old and enjoys playing video games and playing baseball. His favorite team is the Baltimore Orioles. He is close to his 9-year-old sister, Hannah, but like most siblings they constantly get on each other’s nerves. Despite having a high functioning form of autism and ADHD he still excels in school. He is an honor roll student at his Middle School and plays drums in the jazz band.
His battle with cancer began on April 3, 2008 when he went to the doctor’s for what everyone thought were headaches caused by allergies. His pediatrician could not find a reason for the headaches so he was sent to the hospital for testing. A CAT Scan revealed a mass, which they said was likely a brain tumor. Four days later at Children’s National Medical Center he had surgery to remove the tumor.
Tyler’s cancer turned out to be a very aggressive form known as Glioblastoma. Unfortunately, Tyler’s tumor did not respond to the standard therapies of radiation and chemo. His tumor has grown and spread throughout his brain leaving the doctors with very few options for treatment. Although Tyler is stable for the time being, if his tumor doesn’t respond to current therapies, it will likely prove to be fatal in a few months. His parents have been scouring the internet looking for any hope with alternative therapies. These treatments will be extremely expensive and insurance will not cover them.
Please help me to get the money needed to help Tyler's family with his on going medical costs - My hope is to have a nice size donation to give them for Christmas.
To help out - Simply go to www.wix-n-stix.com and click SHOP for candles. Choose the CANDLES for KIDS and place your order - All monies from the purchase of prayer child candles will be given to Tyler's family. So place your order before December 15th, and help this cute little guy out!

I know changing eating habits can help with autism, look at Jenny McCArthy's son... He is a totally different child since Jenny looked into foods people eat and how it effects you.
