The Wysocki Family Requests Donations to CRN in lieu of Birthday Gifts in Honor of Jacob Ellerbock
Jacob Ellerbrock at the Wysocki's firetruck-themed birthday party
Lucas and Shane Wysocki celebrated their birthdays on June 16, 2007 with a firetruck-themed party and generous guests! Lucas turned three, and Shane turned one. The Wysocki family asked that their guests donate to the Cystinosis Research Network in lieu of birthday gifts. Lucas and Shane's friend, Jacob Ellerbrock, age 2 1/2, has cystinosis. In the words of Lucas Wysocki, they want to help their friend "get better."
Lucas and Shane raised $1615.00 for CRN! Lucas and Shane's mom and dad, Kelly and Mike, feel that they not only raised money but also awareness for cystinosis. Kelly said the party was one of the best experiences she has had.
"The Ellerbock's mean A LOT to us," Kelly said, " and we want nothing more than for an eventual cure for Cystinosis." |
