Hi. We just got word today that Alicia's best friend/riding buddy, Mac, was rushed to Hershey Medical Center. They found out that he has a brain tumor. He is only 11 years old. He will have surgery tomorrow.
We really need all the Bella Beams and prayers to get him through this.
Thanks.

Sorry I did not give an update sooner.
They were able to remove most of the tumor but not all of it. He will need to get chemotherapy to take care of the rest.
Mac came home last Friday. He was happy to be home. He was not dealing with being in the hospital very well.
Alicia was able to visit with him Saturday.
He has been able to go to school for about 1 hour at a time to see his friends.
Alicia goes over to spend time with him as much as she can. His mom said that she has really helped perk him up.
Mac and Alicia are really bummed because he is not allowed to be on the bike for 3 months. They are anxious to ride even though it is freezing out.
Please continue to send Bella Beams while he is healing.
