So today we aren’t going to talk about baseball. I want you to stop what you are doing and think for a moment, what YOU would do if the person you loved most in life (your little baby) just stopped walking one day. You had no idea why. You took him to the doctor and it took a while but finally they found out the reason-----he had leukemia. What would you do? You would fight for his life. You would spend every single penny you could find on getting him treatment. You would spend several months in a hospital sitting next to him trying to ease his suffering. You would research every possible case to find a treatment to prolong his life and increase his quality of living. This is what Laura Ann Shieder does every day for her son Mack and now we are going to help. We are trying to organize a day that the baseball family can come together and help this little boy and his family. We are “Going to Bat for Mack”. Please, please stay tuned to this blog and my facebook for more information. When we get the date set bring your entire family to the field, buy a shirt, make a donation and say a prayer for little Mack Shieder. We are going to “Go to Bat for Mack” and help him win his battle.
Be grateful for the blessings in your life. Tell your family you love them. But more than anything know that baseball is such a small thing in the big picture unless we can do ‘Big Things’ through the game. Now let’s “Go to Bat for Mack.”
Trudy,
