Benefit Dinner for Jake Gallerani
| |
Join us on Saturday, October 19th at the Milford Youth Center, for a benefit dinner for Jake Gallerani, a young boy from Uxbridge. During the past six months Jake has had 3 surgeries to remove tumors from his head. Jake has a very rare case of Sarcoma which is aggressive and difficult to combat. He has responded very well to his surgeries, but it is apparent that there is a need to find a treatment to his specific case. Experimental testing being conducted at Children's Hospital in an attempt to figure out a way to make Jake healthy again is not covered by insurance and will exceed $25,000.
This year was not anything like what most kids experience for Jake and his family: he did not vacation, have sleepovers (other than the hospital) and barely participated in any of the sports he loves. School was very spotty as he needed to avoid any and all outside illnesses. As we are all getting ready for school to begin for our kids, his parents are getting prepared for another long run of chemo and treatments. I am sure none of us can even imagine.
We hope you can participate and enjoy an evening in which we can have some fun and help a family in need of something good to happen.
There will be a DJ, dancing, auction items. Oliva's is providing food for the event and there will be a cash beer and wine bar. Tickets are being sold now so please see the event flyer for details.

What is Alateen? Alateen is a fellowship of young Al-Anon members, usually teenagers, whose lives have been affected by someone else's drinking.
The purpose of Alateen is for young people to come together to:
-share experience, strength and hope with each other
-discuss their difficulties
-earn effective ways to cope with their problems
-encourage one another
-help each other understand the principles of the Al-Anon program
Alateen Members Learn:
- compulsive drinking is a disease
- they can detach themselves emotionally from the drinker's problems while continuing to love the person
- they are not the cause of anyone else's drinking or behavior
- they cannot change or control anyone but themselves
- they have spiritual and intellectual resources with which to develop their own potentials, no matter what happens at home
- they can build satisfying and rewarding life experiences for themselves
The Alateen meetings will start September 18, 2013, every Wednesday from 4-6pm in the ESL room at the Milford Town Library. For more information, please call Jacque Gorman at 508-473-2145 ext 223 or e-mail at [email protected]
