Carson Valley girl's family says 'thanks'
Though Carson Valley is my home, I am currently in Houston with my daughter Bailey, who is being treated for bone cancer in her right leg at the MD Anderson Cancer Center.
Recently, Kathy and Mark Goforth of the P.O.B.O.B Motorcycle Club of Northern California set up a fundraiser to offset some of our medical expenses. Along with Hooligan's Ink and Finx Gourmet Hot Dogs, these folks made this all happen, along with all of the wonderful people who showed up for the event and donated both time and money.
Bailey is winning the fight and will return soon to tell the story.
