If you’re anything like I’ve been lately the TV has become an afterthought, forget about what’s actually on it. Normally this would be a welcome blessing for me. My friends are probably cheering after reading after reading my first sentence. Unfortunately that means I’ve been missing important messages (like these).

Children’s Miracle Network has been helping kids for years. In fact it was still in the growing phases when I had to use the services of the local Miracle Network hospital. So it’s pretty cool to see how the organization has grown as I have. I have no idea where I’d be today without CMN & their services for special needs kids. I wouldn’t be as independent as I am, that’s for sure, & technology is making miracles like mine much more common. Also, there are more than 9 million kids in the US who are without insurance. CMN hospital’s doors are open to any kid, no matter who they are or where they came from. We keep hearing that early detection & treatment is key. That doesn’t just apply to diseases like Cancer & conditions like Autism. It’s life. A healthy, & I’m using the term very broadly, kid in the present becomes a healthy adult for the future.

As one of their “miracles” I’m asking you to please consider buying a miracle balloon to support your local CMN hospital so it can continue to help kids in your area. I think a balloon with only set you back $1. A small price to help a kid who needs help considering one night in a hospital costs.

There’s also CMN of Canada. So for the Canadians now you know & consider yourself asked. (CMN of Canada)
