Recently I received an email from my good friend Tina. Basically what it said was that her little cousin George, is going through some major health problems right now. I assure you this is legit and not some spam crap. She's trying to raise money to send her cousin to NY for treatment. I copied the email on here. Take the time to read below and even check out the website for more info. I know she'd appreciate any help and fwding this along.

Hi guys,
I am hoping that you can help me to raise money to help to send my 8 year old cousin to America for life saving treatment for childhood cancer (Neuroblastoma). He has battled against the cancer for the last 18 months and was given the all clear 4 months ago but the cancer has returned and sadly he cannot be treated further in the UK .
We need to raise a large amount of money to send George for treatment in the USA as quickly as possible. George's Appeal is being supported by The 2Simple Trust, a registered UK Charity, no (1113954) further information on Neuroblastoma and George's appeal can be found on
