THON RAISED 10.5 MILLION IN THE FIGHT AGAINST PEDIATRIC CANCER
Makhi and the family just attended our 4th year of THON. And again the PENN STATE students raised a unbelieveable amount of money 10.5 MILLION!!! THON is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world. Its goal is to conquer pediatric cancer by providing emotional and financial support to children and families at Penn State Hershey Medical Center. Makhi's THON family is the NAACP & SMART and we love them. We have been with them for 4 years.This year he had to new dancers Tenesha Swift & Chris Thompson! Both of them danced 46 hours and could not sit down....I am no sure how they did it but they did and all FTK!!!!! I would also like to thank Shanice Wellington, Lerell Richards,Kiwan Wirght, Tiffany Parker and everyone in the NAACP & SMART ORG that made our trip to THON so much fun.

Makhi he is doing well. May of this year Makhi will be ACTH for 2 years:)!!!!!! He still stuggles in school and he needs lot of extra help but he is making progress. He has just started a new drug call FOCLAN and it really seems to be helping him. His teachers say that he is really learning now. I went threw many ADHD meds and none of them worked but this one has:) I hope all OMS families kids are doing well
