$ A P/ [8 R/ B, }PLEASE pass this mail on to everyone you know - even to those you don't know! It is the request of a special girl who will soon leave this world due to cancer.9 N; P, ?4 y- i
This 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.
1 a9 T2 ^ ~7 o, ]# iShe'll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.% T7 f3 A% r8 [, x- a2 Q/ }
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!: P7 _+ v1 x& q0 n7 ?: d
PLEASE PASS ON AS A LAST REQUEST.
