Gracie's address

I am touched.... Many of you have asked where to send cards for Gracie - what a wonderful place we have here. Here's the address where Gracie can receive cards, etc:

Gracie Purdum - Patient
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
262 Danny Thomas Place
Memphis, TN 38105
USA


again - girls and guys - this is a wonderful gesture, THANK YOU very much!

Greg-
I don't know you, but am heartbroken for you and your family. I am thankful, however, that Gracie is at St. Jude. There is no place in the world better she could be, IMO.

Can you give any insight as to what Gracie likes (toys, games, etc.)? I would love to send her something to help brighten her day. Praying and Believing.....

Just a heads up, I called our local cancer center and just want to let folks know that stuff animals and the like are sort of frowned on. They are worried about them harboring germs, etc.

Greg, I just saw this thread and it really shakes me. Gracie is a beautiful little angel and I hope God shows his grace on her and your family. My wife and I took in our two granddaughters 4 years ago from negligent parents and have dedicated our lives to raising them. I just don't understand this world. Children are the greatest gift on earth and the hope for our future, and it's impossible to fathom how they can be harmed by others, or by circumstances like your Gracie is going through. My heart goes out to you and to your family and I hope God takes this opportunity to reveal himself through Gracie's recovery. I'll pray for her and for your family.

Things like this make it very hard to stomach this world......

I am truly very, very, sorry about this tragic loss. I have no words that can possibly mean anything, but you have my deepest and most sincere sympathy. Life is just so ugly and unfair sometimes, I just don't understand it.

I hope you and your family can make it through and find some peace and comfort as soon as humanly possible. You all have my thoughts and prayers, and I so wish I could offer something more.

Warmest regards to you all.
