Reid My Mind

Throughout September, I’m not only pushing up for children with Retinoblastoma, I’m actively thinking about them and sending them and their family’s positive energy.

My hope is that the good thoughts, positive energy and prayers are going to accumulate in a spiritual account, enabling the children and families to withdraw when necessary.

For my little guys and girls, I want them to take a little out when for the first time they notice someone staring at their artificial eye. My little warrior may feel as though they aren’t pretty enough or maybe they think they won’t get chosen for a team on the playground. Go ahead, access that account and hold your head a little higher.

For the parents at their wits end struggling to get their child to another EUA (Exam under anesthesia) by 6 AM. Driving 5 hours from their small town to the nearest RB Center, trying their best not to wake their 13 month old, and fearing she would begin crying for a bottle. The little RB Warrior will have to wait because a child cannot be examined on a full stomach. These parents will need a bit of energy to maintain themselves and their relationship for their child.

While my main goal with #PennyPushUps is to raise funds, I know not everyone will donate. However, everyone can easily deposit a little positive energy into that account.

Have you checked out Day 4 or Day 5 yet? If not for the children then here are some other considerations:

The music mix is banging!
