(You can skip to minute 4:20 once the video is playing to bypass the introductions.) Watching part of this video is the best way to get an understanding of what this amazing new research is doing. It has given me more hope than ever! We will talk to Dr. Anderson at the Cleveland Clinic on the 26th to see how likely it will be for Elizabeth to get this immunotherapy vaccine. Right now the biggest need is continuing the private funding until they can get the go ahead from the government to start the trial and get funding from government and pharmaceutical companies. I learned so much about the very unique challenges within pediatric cancer to finding treatments, preserving life, and protecting long term health for kids with cancer. Here's another great website for information:

(This is a non-profit that was founded with the specific purpose of finding and funding a cure for Ewing's Sarcoma.)
We are hoping to be hold a fundraiser in the fall so that we can help contribute to this incredible research. More details to come. Thanks for your love, thoughts, and prayers. We believe in miracles and pray this is the miracle that Elizabeth needs. Love you all!
