There is an article on the Portland Press Herald's web site about
yesterday's radiothon.  URL is:
 
http://www.biddeford.com/ph/news/story2.htm
 
I suggest you try to access it as soon as possible since in the past,
articles on that site have only stayed up for a day or so.
 
Among the stories mentioned is one about a man who took the $4,000 he
had planned to spend on a vacation in Europe and donated it to the
Fund because "Travis needed the money more".  The girl who took the
pledge cried when she heard this.  And two kids aged 6 and 8 broke
open their piggy banks and donated $48.52.
 
Maybe this is part of the legacy of Travis' injury, that for whatever
reason, he's got people starting to care about other people like this
again.  Some people may soon forget about the way they wanted to help
their fellow man...but some people will not forget.
