“PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSE help,” the Facebook message started. “Jayden, a little 5 year old girl, has been dealt an unfair hand.”
It was the message at the top of a page - BATTLING CANCER - PLEASE HELP THIS 5 YEAR OLD – created by the non-profit Unique Stars Cancer Group, and it told in instantly heartbreaking fashion the summarized story of Jayden “Baby Jay” Souter, who suffered from Wilms’ Tumor – a form of kidney cancer that targets children.
Help for Jayden, the page said, was needed in the form of mail (“She LOVES to get mail,” it said.) – cards filled with stickers and bracelets and dollars. Anything to make her smile and know she was loved. The information, which included her Lawrence , Kan. , address, marked the event to begin at 9:30 p.m. on April 24 and run through the week.
