What is reality? We hear so much about “reality” TV. In fact today I was asked by a news journalist to comment about reality TV’s Heidi Montag’s recent most publicized multiple marathon plastic surgeries. Is it common to video surgeries (her’s were filmed) for possible use in a future “reality” TV show? Not “common”, and certainly NOT reality!
Later, the same day, I met 10 year old Grayson’s mom. She told me about her real life hero. Grayson was diagnosed at age 6 with an inoperable brain tumor. Sorry Heidi, but this IS reality!!!!!
Grayson’s dream is to be among the top fundraising teams in this Sunday, April 11’th “Walk for Kids 2010” at Universal Studios backlot (as well as at Victoria Gardens, Rancho Cucmonga and Honda Center, Anaheim). Grayson will be walking 5K, no easy task for him.
In Grayson’s words, “My name is Grayson, and I am raising money for Camp Ronald McDonald by walking 5K and getting sponsors to participate. I love going to Camp Ronald McDonald and want to make sure all kids have the same opportunity. you can read my story at www.amazinggray.org”
To donate online, go to www.amazinggray.org, click on “Support Us”, and then click on “Team Amazing Gray (blue ink)”.
Though the Walk will be over in a few days, I plan to leave this here for good, hopefully so that we can be reminded of true reality, and where to direct our energies.
In these days of “conspicuous consumption” as discussed by author and blogger Seth Godin (http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2010/04/revisiting-conspicuous-consumption.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+typepad%2Fsethsmainblog+%28Seth%27s+Blog%29), please consider supporting Grayson’s team “Gray Dragon”, and Camp Ronald McDonald. Thank you!
Grayson you will always be in our prayers.
