All things ballooning

I am coming to you at a time of serious need within our community.
> Some of you may know about this young lady and for those of you who do
> not, let me take this opportunity to speak with you about her.*
>
> *12 year old Abigail, who is a student at Queensbury Central School,
> went to the nurse one day a couple weeks ago complaining of a bad
> headache. Within minutes she had passed out in the nurses’ office and
> was rushed to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a brain
> aneurysm and lays in critical condition with a prognosis which is not
> very positive.*
>
> *I was approached by a good friend of Abbey’s father to ask for help
> to offset some of the families’ costs to travel back and forth to
> Albany Med as well as costs associated with being at the hospital each
> day. The person who approached me did so because of how impressed she
> was with what we accomplished with the Rally 4 Codey and knew that we
> could put this together and make it a positive day for the family of
> this young lady. *
>
> *I met Abbey’s father this afternoon and a lump has been in my throat
> ever since because his daughter is just a mere 2 weeks younger than my
> daughter, Allison. It was all I could do to hold back my tears as we
> talked about what he and his family is going through and the
> helplessness that they feel being able to do nothing but be there each
> day and hope for guidance to get them through each day. I could tell
> how hard it took Abbey’s father, Joe, to talk to me and open up about
> his daughter and I thanked him for that. I also told him that we have
> some very remarkable people in this community who pull together in
> times like this and try to bring some piece of hope to the family
> whose loved one is sick.*
>
> *I would like you all to take time and think about if you would like
> to be a part of the Rally 4 Abbey which will take place on Sunday May
> 3^rd which coincidentally will be Abbey’s 13^th birthday. We want to
> have hot air balloons, food, fun, etc involved and I know that you
> will help me to make this an incredible day. We are working on a flyer
> that will be sent to each of you via email which will give more
> details about this event. If you have any ideas or know of how you
> wish to help please contact me via email. *
>
> *Thank you for your time and consideration of this most worthy event.*

New Info Update! The Rally 4 Abbey will be held on May 3rd at 3PM at the Kingswood Golf Course in Hudson Falls New York!
