My aunt sent me this forward about a charity sweepstakes tied to the movie 'Extraordinary Measures.' I first watched the video mentioned below with Ellie in my arms, it made me cry almost immediately. To think of having a happy healthy baby and then life changes so suddenly, I cannot imagine. It made enough of an impact on me that I wanted to share it with all of you. If you have a chance, check the site out and vote! Help make a difference.
The E-mail Message:
"WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! We have entered a video titled “Noah’s Hope—Fix You” into a contest associated with the up-coming release of the movie “Extraordinary Measures” featuring Brandon Fraiser and Harrison Ford. The winner of the contest will receive up to $10,000 to go to the charity or research fund of their choice. We are asking family and friends to VISIT THE SITE AND VOTE EVERYDAY. If we win, we will use this money to fund research to find a cure for Late Infantile Batten Disease….a terminal neurological disease which is affecting two of my three children. Currently there is no treatment and the disease is always fatal. We will also match any winnings out of our foundation to further research efforts. Please help Noah and Laine, and the many other precious children affected by this devastating disease. For more information about Batten Disease, please visit our website: http://www.noahshope.com/
