Seattle is the place, and now is the time.

Recently there has been a lot of information in the news about a new leukemia trial that was completed with astounding success. At our clinic appointment on Monday I asked our doctor what she thought about it.. she smiled and said they've been getting a lot of calls regarding the findings. This conversation lead to one about Dr. Michael Jensen and the Ben Towne Foundation.. Seattle has long been known for cutting edge medical research but what is on the horizon will change everything. With help from the Ben Towne Foundation, Dr. Jensen is working to create a world without childhood cancer.

Did you know that cancer is the leading cause of death by disease among US children?

Dr. Jensen says:

We have the knowledge.
We have the technology.
We have the insights from decades of research.
We're ready.
Seattle is the place and now is the time.

The links below will share stories and information - we shared a room briefly with the Hartle Family - John is incredible.

If you feel so inclined please donate to this cause, no one should suffer to be well the way that Georgia and so many children have, and changing that is possible. If nothing else though, I ask that you share this information.. copy and re-post this to your blog, an email, Facebook - anything to keep this information going, it will make a difference.
