A dude on another forum I visit has a daughter with Rett Syndrome and the facility that is searching for a cure is trying to win the Pepsi Refresh Project to raise funds, in order to get the cure approved.
Here is his story-
Rett Syndrome is taking my girl away from me, and she needs the cure found to work in mice, but not yet approved for humans yet. The only thing in the way is more funding and this is where Pepsi and you are stepping up.
Today is the final day of the Pepsi Refresh project for our August running. We have held a 1st position all month until yesterday. As I speak we are 3rd and 2nd and 1st spots are worthy causes as well and in fact they ere in alliance with us, but somehow they passed us once we pulled them up behind us with our voters.
Now we need at least a 2nd or 1st place spot to get the 250k Pepsi will give our researchers for a cure for Rett Syndrome which my daughter has and is a very life threatening condition. Her and over 30,000 other girls in the US are fighting for their lives while researchers find new ways to help them. Successful treatments have been found indeed, but it is expensive to get through the FDA approval process for approving the drugs that help.
Please help us by voting today. Every single vote counts as I believe that 1st, 2nd, and 3rd spots are all only a handful of votes away from each other.
If you would like to help, please do so by taking 5 seconds of your life to vote which could mean saving my daughter's entire life.
