A LITTLE GIRL NEEDS YOUR HELP

Operation Give is not just about sending toys to the Iraqi kids. It's about helping those in need. And right now, there's a little girl in Iraq that needs our help.

From Chief Wiggles:

Tabarak, a nine month old Iraqi baby, has a tumor since birth that is growing rapidly now threatening her life. She will shortly die if something isn’t done. Her condition is worsening daily but the much needed treatment cannot be performed in Iraq to prevent her death. She needs a life saving operation to remove the tumor, allowing her to have hope for another day, another chance to live a normal life. She requires a combination of steroids, laser therapy, surgical resection, and plastics reconstruction, which can be performed in the United States.

Please, if you can spare a few dollars, donate. If you have connections with a hospital or doctors, please contact them and plead for help. If you have a blog, please help spread the word. A little girl is counting on the goodness of man to save her life.

Kids don't understand countries and cultures and politics and ideologies. They just want to be kids. Tabarak just wants to be, let's help her.

Give til it hurts folks. It's a good pain.
