(January 8, 2007) — IRONDEQUOIT — Lydia Turiano didn't want a Barbie doll, board games or Easy-Bake Oven for her 10th birthday. She wanted money.

However, it wasn't for selfish reasons.

Instead of her family and friends buying her toys, she wanted them to bring cash donations to her party for fellow fourth-grader Brian Santos, 9, who has bone cancer. [more]PRAISE GOD FOR THIS KIND GIRLS HEART!!!

There might be hope after all :)

It depresses me that the first thing I thought was "My sister would NEVER do that." ::sigh:: I think most little kids are brats. Although 9 years old is old enough to understand cancer, while my sister, at 4 years old, is not. So maybe she won't be so selfish by the time she's 9.
