On January 4th, 2009, God took Brooke Mulford to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOPS).
As we are all aware, she has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma. Brooke is a strong little girl, but she still needs our help.
On Sunday January 18th, the Bank of Delmarva in concert with SYSCO & many others will be hosting "Brooke's Day" at Market Street Inn. Lunch will begin at 11am and will be served to 4pm. Dinner will start at 4 and be served until 11pm.
The specials for the day will be a sample of Brooke's favorite dishes: salmon, filet mignon with chocolate demi-glace, seared scallops and of course Chef Joel's now famous crab & lobster soup. Ice cream will be free to all children all day long.
Everyone is invited to come show your support for Brooke and Amy and Rob.
Stop by for lunch, dinner or a drink & appetizer on "Brooke's Day" & be sure to sign the giant banner which w ill be sent to the Mulfords in Philadelphia.

Just a heads up--we called to try to get reservations this morning, and they are booked solid until at least 8 pm (and we called early today). They are taking first come, first served seating in the bar area, though, but those booths only take about 4 people at a time so keep you party small. Anyway, bad for us, but awesome for this worthy cause! We'll turn our attention to joining Saturday's walk.
ReplyDeleteMy sister survived a neuroblastoma when she was 12. Her case was quite unique and was a case study for years. Since then, at every stage of transition in life, she's suffered other cancers, most recently invasive lobular breast cancer, that was four years ago.
ReplyDeleteShe's a thriving 52 year-old woman.
My prayers to Brooke Mulford, and remember there is always hope.
