Purses and Paintings FOR SALE...plus a fund-raising update

Hello friends, family, and our local community!

We are forging ahead with fund-raising and have a new total (drum roll please......) $7150.00 !!!!!  Thank you all for your support.  These funds have allowed us to begin testing to see if Lila and Nora are an HLA (components within the stem cells) match, blood type match, etc.  These tests will be quite comprehensive and costly, but will tell us if we will be able to use Nora's cord blood to help Lila or not.  There are very detailed steps that need to be taken with CBR (cord blood registry) in order to even be allowed to have her blood released from the bank, of which we have begun this past week.  Movin' forward and excited to be one step closer to the treatment!
