We need your help to keep Mike's plan in action! As most of you know, Michael began a fundraiser in April of 2012. Given the severity of his cancer diagnosis, he still had a kind heart, a generous soul, and great hope. Michael decided for his 36th birthday he would give instead of receive. He, along with the help of his closest friends and family members were able to raise enough money to fill 50 gift bags full of necessities to be passed out to the cancer patients at Stroger Hospital. On April 30, 2012 (Mike's last birthday) Michael hand delivered each bag to patients who sat while receiving chemotherapy, and to those in the waiting area, awaiting treatment. A small story that my mother and I will never forget... There was a lady who was sitting beside her mother while she was getting treatment, she stopped Michael in his tracks and told him, "You've just made my day, because you put a smile on my mother's face". He didn't do it for recognition, but I do know him being greeted with gratitude for his generosity put that much more love in his heart. This was his plan for all upcoming birthdays, to spread a little joy and crack a few smiles to those who hurt like he. This year we plan to put a few more smiles on the faces of those struggling with cancer. We are looking to raise $500.00 to fill 65 goodie bags, and anything left over will be forwarded to the Make -A- Wish foundation. (Mike's favorite charity) It's the Bartlett family's obligation to execute this goal, and fufill this dream of his. Will you be a part of this legacy?
