Please help save my daughter's life (again)

[Lavinco]

Last September, everyone here graciously helped my daughter in a very big way by taking a few seconds out of their lives to vote for Pepsi to award $250k to the International Rett Syndrome Foundation, which we did win; hugely because of everyone here. Here is that thread: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=127868713

Today, that money is being used towards life saving research which will lead to treatments that will save girls, like my very own daughter, from dying early in life from a disease called Rett Syndrome, which is the most severe from of autism in girls. When boys get this genetic disorder, they will usually die in the womb or before age 3. Girls can live disabled from age 3 to 50 in best cases.

Currently, there is no treatment or cure, but researchers are very close. In fact, they are testing a very promising treatment right now.

Today, we have another opportunity to raise more money towards saving my daughter's life and the thousands out there like her.

Through the Vivint Project, we now have another shot at $250,000 if we have the most votes. You can vote once per day until August 27th, 2011.

We are currently in 8th place (June 16th), and about 1900 votes away from 1st place.

Please help save my little girl by simply casting your vote for the International Rett Syndrome Foundation. Here is the link: http://www.vivint.com/givesbackproject/charity/998

And just like before, I can't thank you all enough for helping.

[arqlol]

I understand your asking us to vote for your child's syndrome and will do so, but at the same time feel bad that we're completely ignoring other children with syndromes and other problems affecting their lives as well.


edit: done.

I understand. I wish no child were sick. It is the most heartbreaking thing for a parent to see their own child sick and they can't do much to help.

You may also be interested to know that our research does indeed help many other children with many other diseases. If you google "Rett Syndrome" news, you will see some of the recent announcements of where the research is leading.

Thanks

I am already repped out until tomorrow and will surely add some to you then. In the meantime, perhaps each voter here would be kind enough to add to another member for doing the same.

I voted but I agree, it certainly makes me feel bad that I'm in a way picking children with one illness/syndrome/ect to live over others.
