Hi, I am a 29 year old father. My wife and I have had a
wonderful life together. God blessed us with a child too.
Our daughter's name is Rachel, and she is 10 years old.
Not long ago the doctors detected brain cancer and in her
little body. There is only one way to save her...an
operation. Sadly, we don't have enough money to pay the
price. AOL and ZDNET have agreed to help us. The only
way they can help us is this way, I send this email to
you and you send it to other people. AOL will track this
email and count how many people get it.
Every person who opens this email and sends it to at
least 3 people will give us 32 cents.
Please help us.
Sincerely
George Arlington
A recent variant adds the following poetry to the hoax.
TO MY CHILD:
Just for this morning, I am going to smile when I
see your face and laugh when I feel like crying.
Just for this morning, I will let you choose what
you want to wear, and smile and say how perfect it is.
Just for this morning, I am going to step over the
laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play.
Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in
the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle
of yours together.
Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone
and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the
backyard and blow bubbles.
Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once,
not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine
for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one
if he comes by.
Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what
you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess
every decision I have made where you are concerned.
Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake
cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them.
Just for this afternoon, I will take us to
McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you
can have both toys.
Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms
and tell you a story about how you were born and
how much I love you.
Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the
tub and not get angry.
Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late
while we sit on the porch and count all the stars.
Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for
hours, and miss my favorite TV shows.
Just for this evening when I run my finger through
your hair as you pray, I will simply be grateful
that God has given me the greatest gift ever given.
I will think about the mothers and fathers who are
searching for their missing children, the mothers
and fathers who are visiting their children's graves
instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers
who are in hospital rooms watching their children
suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they
can't handle it anymore.
And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a
little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that
I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing,
except one more day.............
