Another mom of a daughter with a PMA tumor has beautiful "American Girl" type dolls that say Bible verses. She is giving them to people that make a donation to the PA/PMA research fund. Please visit her site Kathrynshope.us to donate and receive a doll. You can still write "Valerie Grace" on the memo line if you would like to donate in Valerie's name and still receive a doll. We are greatful to Kathryn's mom for all of her efforts in getting this research started!

I sought the LORD and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

Our youngest daughter was diagnosed a pilomyxoid astrocytoma, a rare pediatric brain tumor, located in the optic chiasm/hypothalamic area of the brain in 2005. We are a Christian family and would like to share our experience of all God has taught us through this, and let others know about the research being done at Johns Hopkins Hospital"><META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="valerie,grace,christian,God,pilomyxoid,astrocytoma,pma,2005,optic,chiasm,hypothalamic,pituitary,child,infant,brain,tumor,healed,resea
