HOPE

I did it! I listened to the radio this morning, and I cried. It's not the pregnancy, I do it everytime they do something like this. But this time, I FINALLY did something about it! Maybe that had a little to do with being pregnant. Anyway, I bought a ticket for the St. Jude Dreamhouse giveaway! I don't care if I don't win the dreamhouse, I don't care if I don't win any of the other prizes. What is $100 bucks, when I can go to school, own a home, cars, motorcycle, and take vacations. I did it to make the guilt go away for the times before when I didn't donate. I did it for Kimpossible's next door neighbor. I did it becasue I just couldn't turn off the radio one more time and ignore those stories.
I personally have had no experience with St. Jude. I have had a few acquaintances who have. I pray I never have to. Those of us who live here should be thankful and proud that St. Jude exists here in Memphis. For all the bad things there are here, there is St. Jude. The whole world knows about this wonderful hospital and what great things it does. I think I will be more giving to them in the future.
For anyone reading who happens to not live here, please feel free to visit St. Jude's website.

Hug your babies!
