Light The Night 2015

Tomas is kicking off his 9th Light The Night Walk.

He had his semi annual check up at Walter Reed yesterday, they did an echocardiogram of his heart to see if there was any damage from the chemo.

He is in perfect health, heart, lungs, and cognitive functions for a 13 year old.

Tomas and his sister went door to door today, he’s sitting at 13%. Overall not a bad start for the year. Now that school will end next week he’ll be able to put more time into finding a one pill cure.

Tomas conducted his first Lemonade Stand for the year. They raised $236.07 at the stand and some people did online donations because of the stand. Total raised for his one pill cure today was $462.00.

Very cool, thank you for the update. Please pass on my thanks and appreciation for Tomas and his team.

I passed on your words of appreciation. He told me to tell you thanks. :slight_smile:

He’s very welcome, it was a pleasure to contribute to his work.

WOW, you guys really pulled through for Tomas. I am humbled Tomas will be happy when he checks his progress. S/F Brothers

To the anonymous ‘M-4 Carbine’ donor; Tomas sends his thanks.

Tomas set up an advocacy stand outside a local grocery store today. The kids ended up raising $237.75 for about 4 hours worth of talking to people and sharing stories.

One gentleman brought his Harley out to give Tomas an opportunity to sit on it.

He is at 35% of his goal for the year.

Tomas needs some help, less than one month before his walk and he is sitting at 47% of his goal.

Statistically…he beat the cancer; he is 5 years off of treatment. Realistically we don’t know what he sacrificed to be alive. The damage that the chemo does to the children has been known for a while.

Tomas understands this and he only wants to help find a cure to help others in the future.

If you can help, he really appreciates it, if you can help comfort someone going through cancer treatment; he really appreciates it.

Only 12 more days until the walk.

Tomas and Anna spent a few hours today walking around the neighborhood.

Only 4 days left, Tomas has raised $4,720.00 so far. That brings him up to 65% of his team goal.

Any help to get him closer to his goal is appreciated.

Tomas just emptied his bank account.

The walk is today, the gap is closing between Team Tomas and the other teams. This might be the first year that Team Tomas isn’t in first place. He is only leading by a little over $200.00. Can anyone help widen the gap?

That sure is a great kid that you have there, Smuckatelli. Send my regards to Tomas today. I hope he receives the support he deserves.

The Light The Night walk was last night. A good turn out, both Tomas and his younger sister Anna spoke at the event.
