Addie's Bone Marrow Transplant

from Ben's mom

This is my very first solicitation. But, as many have told me they keep up with Addie's progress, I thought I would give you the opportunity to give.

Addie's bone marrow transplant is scheduled for January 30 and she is already living at Seattle Children's Hospital in preparation. She and her family will be there for more than 6 months living in the Ronald McDonald House. There are kitchen facilities there. Life is getting very expensive for her family. I'm certain they would be blessed and encouraged by gift certificates or money to help meet their needs.

If you would like to send a gift directly to the Kunkels, you can go to the link to Addie's page. The hospital address is located on the right side of the page. I will also be putting together some things from our family and would be happy to send along anything you want to send to me. To email us, go to the profile on the sidebar and you will see the link for our email under "contact."

Some ideas: Addie's mom loves Trader Joe's and there is one within walking distance of the hospital. She also loves Starbucks and well, it is Seattle, so there is most certainly one within walking distance. Gift certificates to either would be appreciated I'm sure. Addie's birthday (1) is January 16 if you would like to honor her.
