“Personally visiting the Lombardi, I got a pretty good idea of what I was running for and a big reason why I did this - the pediatrics cancer area - with toys, children's poems, drawings, and everything to let children know that they are good kids who should enjoy life, despite the gloom of x-rays, needles, and chemotherapy.  On the wall, I found this quote by Mother Theresa - We Cannot All Do Great Things, But We Can Do Small Things With Great Love juxtaposed with kid poems in the hallway.  You wonder why you are alive, why you are blessed, and what you should do about it.  I nearly raised $2,500, which helped me to surpass the $2,000 minimum for Lombardi.”
