Below is a letter written by my brother Barry Roberts about his daughter, my niece, Madeleine Roberts, who is a childhood leukemia survivor. I actually have another niece, Logan Kato who also survived childhood leukemia. One of my favorite bands, Subzero, the lead singer, Lou, is a leukemia survivor. If you have any extra resources, please consider giving to this cause. Donation links are below. Scroll down to watch a video of my nice Madeleine talking about her experience.
Thank you,
Brenda Kato

Dear friend,
I am proud to be a team leader for the Light the Night Walk. I proud my
company, Garden City Group, supports this charity that is near and dear to
my heart. Most of my friends know my daughter Madeleine is a Leukemia
cancer survivor, but I’m not sure anyone can appreciate how devastating this
cancer is to families when their loved ones are diagnosed.
I have included below a little bit about our family experience, a story of
joy as we see Madeleine surviving and thriving. Also included is a link to
a Youtube video that we did for Nemours Childrens Clinic that you may find
interesting.
