Get Out of the Kitchen and Help Fight Childhood Cancer

As most of you know, my nephew Carson was diagnosed with nodular medulloblastoma (a brain tumor) when he was nine months old. His cancer was so rare, he was only the 30th case in the WORLD to be diagnosed. As a patient at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, he underwent multiple surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation. Now, almost five years later, he is a happy 1st grader with a smile that will melt your heart.

Today, September 28th is St. Jude Day at Chili's. Chili's will donate 100% of their profits to St. Jude!!!! This is part of Chili’s 10-year commitment to donate $50 million dollars to this wonderful hospital.

If you are local, my family will be at the Hamilton Mill Chili’s tonight around 6:30. Please let me know if you would like to join us! If not, call a friend and see if they will meet you at your local Chili’s! What could be easier than eating a big mouth burger and helping to fight childhood cancer? And what a great excuse not to cook?
