Dear Friend,

Please support my participation in the 2009 Boston Marathon -- as a member of the MassGeneral Marathon Team Fighting Kids' Cancer...One Step at a Time -- with a generous contribution to the Massachusetts General Hospital.

Your gift of $25, $15, $50 or more to the MGH will mean a great deal to me, but it will mean much more to the many children who are fighting cancer today and hoping for a cure.  These courageous boys and girls are in the most challenging race of all, a race for a full recovery and a future free of disease. 

It is for these many dear, young patients -- along with their incredibly caring doctors, nurses, families and friends -- that I will be running the Boston Marathon on April 20, 2009.  And it is on their behalf that I ask you from the bottom of my heart to give as much as you possibly can today.  Thank you. 

Sincerely,

Bob Cargill                                                                                                         November 25, 2008
