DINNER & DRINKS 4 DEBORAH

The FLAMIN HOTTIES come together in support to help raise funds for a local family battling cancer. This event brings together individuals concerned about cancer in a unified effort to fight back. Citizens will gather at (JOHNNY’S TAVERN) on Shawnee Mission Parkway from (6:00 pm to 10:00 pm) for a night of fundraising in support of Deborah Clark, age 29 and single mother of 3, who passed away Friday January 29th after her battle with cancer. In August of 2008 Deborah was six months pregnant with her third child when she was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. They did immediate surgery and delivered her baby boy who spent 4 months in the NICU and today he is thriving and doing well. However, after her first surgery Deborah was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. She is currently in hospice and her family is asking for help with her final arrangements and for her children. The FLAMIN HOTTIES will be on hand to serve, all TIPS and 20% of the proceeds from the evening will be given directly to the Clark family to assist with final arrangements and a donation to the fund for her children.
~---------------------~
“I have known Deborah for 11 years and I can not imagine something this terrible happening to such a nice person. Deborah has not always had the best of luck in the game of life, but she had always managed to keep a smile on her face.” said (BETH SANDS), “Due to the generosity of our local businesses, like JOHNNY’S TAVERN the money raised by the Flamin Hotties can go directly to this family.”

For more information on how you can make a donation through the FLAMIN HOTTIES in support of the Clark Family, please contact Angela Epperson at (913-742-8340) or via email at FlaminHotties@hotmail.com.

SWEETHEART BAKE SALE




Sweetheart Bake Sale

Our friend and brave lil'cancer warrior Jillian Sharp and member of the RFL Team WILMS WARRIORS will be having her 3rd annual Sweetheart Bake Sale!!! Jillian and her friends in the past two years have had a bake sale to raise money for the American Cancer Society. In just two short years, Jillian’s team has raised a little over $16,000!

This year, the “Sweetheart Bakers” are going to do something different with the proceeds of this year’s bake sale. Jillian’s friend, Gabe… who lives here in Shawnee, has just recently relapsed with neuroblastoma. He was given a 30% chance of survival and with the relapse, his chance of survival is even smaller. Gabe’s mom is a teacher in the Olathe School District and the family recently found out that Gabe’s treatment has been denied because his treatment is deemed “experimental.” Children’s Mercy can no longer offer the treatment he needs so he left January 25th and will be treated at a hospital in California who treats relapse neuroblastoma. The family is not sure how they are going to pay for treatments but as any parent would, they are not going to give up and will find a way to hopefully save their son.
