Here's Annie surrounded by cards and gifts from friends and family and even from people that Annie has never met. We are totally overwhelmed by the kindness, encouraging words, and prayers in Annie's behalf, especially by those who don't even know her.

Cookies for Kids Cancer
When Annie was diagnosed, her Aunt Alex was inspired by her friend whose sister had started Cookies for Kids' Cancer, a foundation that raises money for pediatric cancer research. Alex started "A Card for a Cookie For Annie Campaign" on Facebook. Alex began by inviting her FB friends to send Annie cards throughout the duration of her chemo treatment. For each card that someone sends to Annie, a dollar will be donated to Cookies for Kids Cancer. The campaign has multiplied as friends have inturn invited their FB friends, and so on, until there are now over 1,000 people involved and are sending Annie cards. She can't wait for the mailman to come each day and to see the cards, pictures and generous gifts that people send her.
