Nope, no fangs  ;D
I'm on hold with the Dentist until next week. My tooth is infected so I have to be on antibiotics before he will even touch it. I so badly wanted him to pull the thing today, it hurts!  :'(

The radio station never called back so I'll be calling tomorrow.

I'll keep everyone posted when I can for the rest of the week after tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for your support, I appreciate it  :)

It's 1am here and thus far sleep is something my brain seems to be opposed to this evening. So I decided to reach out to the upstate NY area by submitting the letter to the Saratogian, Troy Record and the Times Union. The more people that know about SCBR in NY the better!

You could send it to syracuse.com - attn Sean Kirst - he does some great human interest stories for the Post-Standard. That is the major paper for Syracuse and most of CNY.

I spoke to Joey from the radio station today and he wants to have Chance on an upcoming show!!!! Though he says donations can't be mentioned during the show as it's against their policy but you can certainly raise awareness for SCBR and let the public know about it! I'm so happy, this is so much better then the letter in print as people can here Chance's story live! Chance, I'll email you with the details.

I still haven't heard back from any of the newspapers, but it's still early and hope is something I will not let go of!

Woohoo! I hope being on the radio helps Barb and SCBR!

You're welcome Barb, if I rock then you shine with all you do!

Everyone have a great week and I'll see you (ok so I won't actually see you, but I'll type to you  :D) on Saturday evening.

Oh, if anyone can tape the interview on the radio that day and send it to me I would appreciate it. Thanks  :)

Let's hope this is just the begining and other places will start contacting me to publish SCBR's story.

I never head back from any of the newspapers that I sent the story to this past week. I was really hoping someone would be touched and put it into print. On Tuesday I'm going to do some more searching and see what else I find to submit too.
