Okay. Listen up people.
I know a kid. His name is Quentin, he's 6 (almost 7) years old and weighs 32 pounds. He has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS). If you do not know what that is (which I highly doubt any of you do) here's a website:
http://www.arthritis.org/conditions/DiseaseCenter/eds.asp
Anyway, I want to do something for him. His family has to pay for special tests out of their own pocket, one of which I know of cost $800.
Now that's a lot for a teacher. For anyone, really.
There is also only ONE specialist in the world that deals with EDS. And he lives in Paris (France).
His parents have to fly him to Texas to get these treatments, because his previous visits to All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg did not help/did not detect this rare disease. They believed it was a more common version of EDS.
So I ask of you, to please donate money to help Quentin get better. I'm going to run this idea by Key Club to see if I can be sponsored/whatever I'm supposed to do. He really needs the help. He's turning gray because of all the heart medicine he's taking (taking more than an adult would take, and he's 6).
I really really really really really really really really really really really really need your help.
Please.
