Right Back at Ya Governor!!

I absolutely LOVED this message from Jed, so I re enter it here:

"Met the Governor of Illinois today. He gave me his business card, and I wrote my charity website info on it and gave ir right back to him."


I wonder, governor, what you thought about that....? Maybe you should go to the site, and lend a hand. That would do more good than public relations. Have you ever watched someone die from cancer? I have. Have you ever loved a little three year old child who is battling brain cancer? I have. Perhaps one less latte, one less soda pop, one less fancy dinner or show or new suit. One less beer or martini at lunch......who's to say what the turning point will be in the search for a cure. Isn't it worth something? Isn't it worth the sacrifice of something, anything you won't really even miss in a day?

Jed is running...daily...through rain and wind, pain and hunger. He is doing it on his own dime. No one is driving along behind him to feed and shelter him at night as they do with so many runners. So, Governor, if I could will it to be so, I would make the image of Jed stick with you till you went to this site and sacrificed just a few dollars, so a life might be helped. And to anyone else out there who might read this.....please do the same.
