I received this appeal (or rather, the Wheelchair Kamikaze received this appeal) earlier tonight. I'm hoping the TIMS community will take a few seconds to help this desperate mom try to save her son:
I am writing to ask for your help in rallying the MS Community behind Hannah’s Hope, which is fighting to find a cure for GAN, a rare neurological disorder that appears in childhood. Hannah’s Hope is currently in third place for a $250K grant to fund research and NEEDS TO BE IN THIRD PLACE BY MIDNIGHT TODAY (August 31, 2010)
Would you help us spread the word that we need votes in the Pepsi Refresh Challenge?

Thanks, guys. In actuality, the ladies cause needs to finish in the top two vote getters in order get the grant. Hopefully we'll put her over the top…

yes, "MS DREAMS" is definitely another worthy contender for the grant money…
