>>      An opportunity to help a cancer patient.
>>
>>      This one is important.  No comedy here.  It's about a seven year
>> old
>>      girl with cancer.  Read it and pass it on to as many people that
>> you
>>      can. Occasionally we get to use this medium for some actual good,
>>
>>      rather than trading barbs across the waves.  And once in a while
>> things
>>      like this bring us back to reality, allowing us to count
>> ourselves
>>      lucky in life.  Let's put our network to work here!  It will only
>> take
>>      you a second to send this message.
>>
>>      Jessica Mydek is seven years old and is suffering from an acute
>> and
>>      very rare case of cerebral carcinoma.  This condition causes
>> severe
>>      malignant brain tumors and is a terminal illness.  the doctors
>> have
>>      given her six months to live.  As part of her dying wish, she
>> wanted
>>      to send a letter to inform people of this condition and to send
>> people
>>      the message to  live life to the fullest and joy every moment, a
>>      chance that she will never have.
>>
>>      Furthermore, the American Cancer Society and several corporate
>>      sponsors have agreed to donate three cents toward continuing
>> cancer
>>      research for every new person that gets forwarded this message.
>>      Please give Jessica and all cancer victims a chance.  Add
>> [log in to unmask]
>>      to the list of people that you send this to so that the American
>>      cancer society will be able to calculate how many people have
>> gotten
>>      this.  If there are any QUESTIONS, SEND THEM TO THE AMERICAN
>> CANCER
>>      SOCIETY AT [log in to unmask]  Three cents for every person that
>> receives
>>      this letter turns out to be a  lot of money considering how many
>>      people will get this letter and how many people they, in turn,
>> pass it
>>      on to.  Please go ahead and forward it to whoever you know - it
>> really
>>      doesn't take much to help out.
