Below is an email I received late Wednesday night. I'm working to see if I can get any more information about this family, but I promised Tori I would share it with you on my blog.

Dear Mrs.Hays,

    I am Tori Zander and I want to ask you a question. I know a 5 year old named Darcy Cassidy and she has a severe Brain Tumor. I was wondering if you could possibly mention her in the News. Its OK if you cant but you wont believe me if I told you how strong that little girl is. She lives in Meridian that's North of Clifton. She will be going to Memphis, TN. to go to St.Jude's Children's Hospital. She will be taking Chemotherapy. Last night in Meridian they had a Fish Fry so they can pay for the flight to TN. and at Waco where they took a sample of the tumor they had to cut the back of her head and neck approximately 5 in. She now has staples there. She only has a 10% chance of living. By mentioning Darcy and her family...I HOPE AND PRAY that people will pray with me too. I hope Darcy Cassidy lives.

The balloon ceremony was beautiful and brought many to tears. What you have not seen through the entire thing is anything but a smile on Darcy's face. She has been a gift and inspiration to all that she has come in contact with and I only hope to ever have half of the strength that this child has. She does need prayers. She is strong and has LOTS to live for!!!!! You go Tori! That you would be willing to put the thoughts out there for prayers shows what type of child you are!

My daughter and son came in today and said that the whole school let balloons go at Meridian Elementary today:) They said as they blew the balloons up they were filling them with prayers for Darcy:) I love this community. We come together in times like these:) I also pray for Darcy and her safe arrival to TN. I also pray that God will guide the Drs. hands.
