All,
I lurk on this board more than I post, but I need to reach out to this wonderful group of people to see if they can help a kid who has a bigger heart than even the toughest of us. The story in the attached link is about the 6 year old daughter of a college friend of mine and former triathlete, Bill Mash. Bill was one of those large than life Clydesdales (literally and figurartively who participate in the sport for fun) Bill gave up the sport (at least for a while) after he had a kidney transplant 5 years ago.
Bottom line, his daughter caught an extremely rare disease to her immune system. Her mom and her have been flying back and forth from their home in Sarasota, FL to Cincinnati, OH for her treatments after bone marrow replacement earlier this winter. They need help getting her back and forth over the next 6 months or so and they cannot fly commercial due to Hanna’s condition.

If any of you have any leads/connections, please respond with a comment to the article! I am willing to make a significant financial contribution to help with this as this family is wonderful and has been through hell the past year or so.
Thanks,
Barry
