My Friend at St. Jude, Part 2

Hey everybody! We got an e-mail from "My friend at St. Jude" the other day. The kids at MYC have started e-mailing him, and this was a recent reply. I thought you might like an update on the blog entry about him, and I think it's cool that he and the MYC kids are staying in touch. He gave his permission for me to post the following e-mail. Enjoy.

Hey everyone, it's me again. I am still on my road to recovery. I had an appointment with my doctor today. All my blood work, organ function, medicine levels, and vitals are good. I talked to a chaplain at the hospital today and was informed that the hospital will start having services on Tuesday's in the chapel. I am excited. Target House, where I am living, has a mass every week but it is in Spanish so I have been lost. I am very glad to hear from everyone. I hope everything works out best for you all. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is a wonderful place. The hospital wouldn't exist if there weren't caring people in this world. The hospital spends $1.6 million a day to run and treat patients, and most of this money is donated to the hospital by companies, indivuals, colleges, ect.. Caring is important. If you can help someone in need, doing so would be the right thing to do. It means a lot to whom you choose to help. Words can't explain. If you ever get the chance to tour the hospital, I would say go for it. It is beautiful. Please keep me in your prayers, and hopefully I will see you soon.
