Help Us Get A New Fun Center for Children's Hospital of MI

I have a favor to ask of you all.

I have just been contacted by an old friend from the US who's nephew, received a new heart a few weeks before he turned 18 this past November. What a birthday gift!

He came too close to not being with his family and spent over 6 months in a Children's Hospital. He is a great kid who has continued to receive great care from Childrens' Hospital in Detroit, MI.

I would appreciate it if you could help out the hospital by clicking on the link below and voting for the Detroit Childrens' Hospital. It costs you nothing and takes just a second or two and will mean so much to so many children. There's more information below in the email request from Joanne Dupuis, the Cardiac Coordinator for the hospital. She and her team have done a fantastic job of getting the hospital better equipped for the kids, like my friends nephew, who continue to rely so heavily on the hospital. Thank you!!!!!

If you're willing, please forward this email to others you know who would be willing to help with just a click as well. THANK YOU!

From: JDupuis@dmc.org

Can you help us by using the link below to vote for our hospital in a competition to get a Fun Center created here for our patients. it is used for a variety of ways including distraction from painful procedures etc. It would be so wonderful if the children of Detroit could have this opportunity too!

It takes about 2 minutes tops - I promise - to clink on the link choose Detroit - Children's Hospital of MI then vote.; We are currently second with 23% to Texas 32%. Please vote everyday and pass this email along to everyone you know!!!!!!!

Crikey that site uses some ambiguous verification codes.

Took four attempts but got there in the end.

I'm sure both causes are equally deserving but happy to support Detroit.

Looks like Detroit's only 1% behind Houston ATM.
