I know way off topic here but don't know where else to ask. Since I have seen a few guys set these up on here I thought I would ask.
Here is a letter I wrote to local radio stations explaining the situation. They did not grant the wish, so I was hopig to set up a fund for him to help him out.
Dear KRXQ,
My name is Rod Luppi an owner of Cassarino Granite & Marble in Loomis . I am writing to you regarding our long time and faithful employee of 12 years , Magdaleno.
Magdaleno’s both daughters were diagnosed with cancer. His 9 y/o with brain tumors, about 2 years ago, and his 7 y/o with leukemia, about a year ago.
Last Thursday, Magdeleno asked to speak to me regarding his situation. He told me that the older daughter has been sent home and that the doctors can no longer do anything more for her. He asked if it was okay for him to stop working indefinitely so that he could spend time with his daughter . Of course I told them that it was more than okay and that he would have a job when and if he wished to return.
We really wanted to do something special for him and his family, but as a small business struggling in a bad economy, there isn’t much we can do other than thoughts and prayers.
As a long time loyal listener, I heard about the 27 days of xmas and my plan was to write to you for help. I was thinking about asking for a trip to Disneyland so that his daughter could experience it at least once before her time came. Unfortunately , she passed away on Monday and this letter is now too late.
However , I still would like to do something for Magdaleno and his family. His remaining daughter is also very sick and I assume they are not doing well financially since he has had to miss a lot of work.
I would like to still ask of KRXQ to grant this family a wish. If not a trip Disneyland maybe something else or some cash ($300) to help with the some bills.
If a wish cannot be granted, I hope to at least maybe raise some awareness for Cancer research, Although I did not know his daughter, this has affected me greatly. Over the last few years I have lost an aunt, 2 college friends and recently my brother in law to cancer. I wish there more I could do, at least writing this letter may be a step in the right direction.
Thank you for the consideration,
