On November 16th, 2008, our daughter Leeya Chaya (now 2 yrs old) was diagnosed with Leukemia (ALL). I can't begin to tell you how traumatic this was to us, as well as our family and friends.
For the past 10 months, Leeya has been going through intense chemotherapy sessions at Robert Wood Johnson / Bristol Myers Squibb Children's Hospital, located in New Brunswick, NJ.
Fortunately, Leeya's siblings - Natalie (12), Reuben (8), and Jonathan (6), have been amazingly supportive, and have played a big role in helping our family get through this difficult time.
On October 4th, we invite you to join our family and friends in the Heel to Heal Walk / Bike ride,( that will take place in Johnson park, Piscataway, N.J), to raise money for the Embrace Kids Foundation. This foundation has done a wonderful job in helping children in the NJ area with Cancer, and blood disorders.
