Marlo Thomas on The Power Of 1

Wanda E9 says:

My son lost his battle because the chemo killed him. The treatment is often worse than the disease.
His tumor was gone, but they kept pumping him full of that poison to kill any residue, meanwhile, it
wrecked his immune system–he was doomed after that. It’s a horrible thing for anyone to go through,
but it’s especially heart-breaking to watch a child suffer. In one last attempt to communicate with me,
my son wrote, “I can’t take……..” What was he trying to tell me? I watched him for 3 weeks after that
as he lay in a coma deteriorating. 12 machines pumped medicine into his frail body trying to kept him
alive but it was hopeless as the infection shutdown his organs one at a time.

Be careful how you give to St. Jude. Research the best option to donate because if you donate through
the info they give on tv, a huge percentage of the donation goes to a third party for ‘processing’. I never
knew about those stores Marla mentioned–I will def check them out to see how much goes to St. Jude.
God Bless St. Jude & all those children and their families that they help, & God Bless ‘That Girl’, that was
one of my favorite shows as a young girl!!
