December Challenge Day 19.

December 2011 HomeRome 410-530-2400

These December Blogs have been boring to read for many members. So here is another take on this challenge.

Karen Anne Stone wrote a post stating ''What if each of us could commit to find someone in need... and reach out... offer our hand in friendship, or do whatever small thing we could... to "lend a hand.. ?"

This kind of challenge could really make a difference. So instead of telling you what I did productive today for the real estate business... I want to tell you the donation I made this week. Had not thought of sharing this because to me charity is not for talking about...it is for doing. But Karen made a good point. By sharing what we are doing it may encourage others do the same.

So here is Day 19 and I hope it makes a difference.

My friend Paul Tanenholz is President of the ML4 Foundation. Paul and Susan are the amazing parents of Lily, Heidi and Becky. They have been instrumental in getting this rare disease noticed. There are only a couple hundred known cases. Will this money help Lily...maybe not but it might help others in the prevention of ML 4. I am so proud of Lilly's dad Paul who heads up the foundation.

Lily on the left..always smiling!

Interested ....read about it and watch the videos. Here is the website for the ML4 Foundation There is a short 2 minute video and you can see a picture of Lily and Heidi Tanenholz. Just listen to Heidi talk about her twin sister.

Should you want to learn more the 10 minute video is here.

So here is Day 19 and I hope it makes a difference.

Margaret, this is a devastating disease for the whole family. Your help in raising money to find a cure is admirable. We could all do just a little bit more to help those around us. Good idea!

I might have inspired another blogger to do an impromptu Komen Walk like we did here and I was beyond thrilled to have sparked that idea....Thanks, Cindy!

Margaret, thank you for the mention of my blog post... but even more so, thank you for publicizing this foundation. Sometimes all it takes is just the right person seeing something like this... and it just "takes off." My heart goes out to Paul and Susan, and Lily, Heidi and Becky.

Bless Your Heart !

Talking about doing anything and actually doing it....different folks and different results ...people who really care about making a difference....it's what makes the world spin.

This is one of the "orphaned" diseases, it affects a small number of people and doesn';t get the needed research funds needed for succesful prevention and treatment. Wonderful choice!

Margaret you are always showing us the "Rome Way"

I think this is a perfect start to the "Who were you nice to today?" question! Share it all.. opened the door for senior.. paid the check for the lady behind me. In Colorado people are becoming Secrect Santa's and are paying off Lay Away gifts to surprise someone they don't even know.... That is making a difference!

Honestly, Margaret....I had never heard of this disease before. I'll watch the complete video to learn more. Best wishes to the family for a healthier 2012.

Margaret, there simply isn't another soul like you! This family is going through so much with this disease and you're doing a wonderful job of getting the message out there for those who had no clue about it. I pray that this family and others who are dealing with this disease, have a happy and healthy New Year and that the research that is being done for a cure, achieves their goal as well.

Carra, Thanks for the feature and hope this is a reminder to others.

Chris, ML4 is extremly rare.

Debe, Thanks for taking time to stop by. Really enjoyed your AR session last week.
