S D IRELAND CANCER RESEARCH FUND INC

Mayor McStache Boston,  Massachusetts

Larry McConnell's Fundraising Page

I grew a beard for months...so many that my wife and kids kind of freaked out when I finally shaved after the Cure Me I'm Irish Event in Boston.  It took me about 5 seconds after entering the hotel room to get the hair off my face.  Here I am one week later, wishing I hadn't complained about how itchy it was...two more of our NB friends passesd away yesterday.  These are KIDS who endured horrendous pain throughout their journeys and I was complaining about itching.

So I no longer have the facial hair but there is nothing stopping me or any of us from donating to the cause.  It wasn't about a stache anyway, that was just a vehicle for fundraising.  It's about awareness and all the spare change in our pockets.  If the spirit moves you please donate as often as you can.  Five or 10 dollars here or there really does help.

NB is a childhood cancer that when relapses has NO CURE.  If children with NB "fail" front line therapy they are considered incurable and will die.  I'd like you to donate in support of myself and my family as we work to do the best we can to fund the lab that is coming up with the science to take "incurable" out of the list of adjectives that describe NB.

Many thanks for your support -- I'd be really happy if you would forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!   It's tax deductible.

Heartfelt thanks.
