Letters to Child's Play   I am a big fan of your website. I also
have a 5-year-old son who has spent most of the last 5 months at
Children’s Hospital undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma, a kind
of cancer.  I read your post about the Child’s Play project, and
I wanted to say thank you. Before my son got cancer, I never
would have thought that anything good could come out of such a
horrible thing, but I was wrong. A sick child brings out the
best in people. We have been blessed with support and generosity
that I never dreamed existed. There have been many times when I
have felt like Jimmy Stewart at the end of It’s a Wonderful
Life. People have come out of the woodwork to help us in our
darkest time, from old friends to complete strangers, to the
Penny Arcade guys. It has been truly amazing to me.  Let me tell
you a little about life at Children’s Hospital, so you can have
a good idea how your gifts help. There are obviously lots of
kids with lots of different problems at Childrens’, and ours is
but one story,
