8 [4 y; Q; _4 e" r, x" mThis young girl has 6 months left to live, and as her dying wish, she wanted to send a letter telling everyone to live their life to the fullest, since she never will.6 f/ d5 O n: s! a% r: O5 q
She'll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.9 p4 y5 u2 T& Q6 v( \
By you sending this to as many people as possible, you can give her and her family a little hope, because with every name that this is sent to, The American Cancer Society will donate 3 cents per name to her treatment and recovery plan. One guy sent this to 500 people! So I know that we can at least send it to 5 or 6. It's not even your money, just your time!
