CELEBRATE WITH US!!

"$18 for 18 years"

September 11, 2010 Andrew will turn 18!!!

When Andrew was diagnosed with SMA at 8 months, the Dr.s told us he would be lucky to see his 8th birthday. Here we are today, getting ready to celebrate 18 miraculous years. 18th birthdays are normally a big deal, but to us this is a REALLY big deal, miracle and blessing and one we don't want to forget!

I have been wanting to celebrate Andrew's birthday in a special way and after reading a heart-warming story about another little girl living with SMA and how her family will be celebrating her upcoming 36 month birthday, I was inspired!  We are so grateful and blessed  to be celebrating this milestone of a birthday with Andrew and thanking God for all the family and friends and miracles along the way!

I am one mom fighting for the life of her child and the countless other children and families affected by this disease. I don't want any other parent to have to count their child's life in months or face the fear of losing their child. I want a treatment and a cure to be found NOW and I'm asking you to help me!

Would you join me in honoring an amazing young man and a miraculous 18 years with an $18 donation to FightSMA? 

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Thank you!

Carice Smith (Andrew's mom : )
