5 year old Jacob Flesher is going in to the Hospital for 30 day stay for stem cell therapy They Elizabeth/Jacob need cards and letters for support. Lets see how many we can get sent from the Farmgirls.Jacob's platelets aren't as high as they want but they are going to go ahead and start treatment anyway. He will get a blood transfusion tonight and start hydration. Tomorrow his chemotherapy will start.

Diana, is Jacob a young boy or an older boy? I'd like to match a card to his age.
Thanks.

Hi Diana,
I will send a card too, but will you confirm the last name. In your note it is Fletcher and in the address it is Flesher. I just want it to be correct.
Thanks,
Annie

I am hoping that the 102 people have sent a card after reading this. You don't have to go and buy a card just a note in an envelope he has 30 days minimum so come on gals you can send a note and break lose the price of a stamp.

Have a good evening.
