Baston Children's Hospital Cancer Center has treated over 2,000 children who have been since their program began. The clinic sees approximately 75 new patients every year and follows more than 800 patients annually, including new patients, patients who are on therapy or have recently completed therapy and long-term follow-up.
Our hem/onc surprise box donation was made in honor of Abby Grace, who is not only one of their patients, but one of our gown recipients as well. She was diagnosed with leukemia at two years old.

A huge thank you goes out to all our volunteers that have worked on these various items that were donated. They include Laura, Kim and Kim's mom (I promise I'll remember her name eventually), Crystal, Jennifer, Cindy, and myself.
Another HUGE thank you goes to all our donors that sent Band-Aids and stickers, and to cover the shipping costs of sending out these boxes when we have all the items together to do so.
There will be a second box coming up very soon to be sent out that just needs a few more items sewn and then we will get it on the way to another lucky hospital.
Here is an old photo of Miss. Abby Grace in her first Gracie's Gowns and a FRECKLES they adopted from the early days of our organization too! I would like to report that Abby Grace is doing phenomenal at this point in time as well. Keep it up girl - you've got this!
