Help my little sister! - Snowboarding Forum

East§ide · 10-12-2012, 09:05 AM

Hey guys, I dont normally ask for favors, but this isnt for me, its for my little sister. She was supposed to go to her first football game last weekend but instead ended up in the Intensive Care Unit in the hospital due to some major complications from her lifelong battle with arthritis. She's only 14 and has never lived a day without pain. Anyway, she is a finalist in a contest that I entered her in to win tickets to see the game from a club seat which would be an amazing experience for her. If you could find it in your hearts to click the link below and vote for her CONTESTANT #4, it would mean the world to myself, my family, and most important, my sister. It would also score you some good karma along the way :-)
I like to think as snowboarders we're all a family and I'm hoping you all can help. Thanks so much
VOTE HERE FOR CONTESTANT #4!

Voted.

I don't normally do that kinda thing but my brother (who's 13 years my senior) has had ankylosing spondylitis (basically arthritis of the spine) since he was young and has had a hell of a time dealing with it his whole life.

Good luck to her!

Oh and football rocks.

thank you so much! certainly if anyone doesnt want to vote, they dont have to.. she is a great kid who keeps her head up despite her physical limitations, and had she not been in ICU last weekend, she wouldve had the chance to attend her first game. Instead, she was hospitalized for 4 days with internal bleeding, a rapidly dropping hemoglobin count and more. I truly appreciate your support

oh, and best wishes to your brother. i know how it can affect the entire family, so stay strong
