I have been humbled by Henry’s sickness and death, and I know damn well that I can’t stop kids from dying. But I know who can make a dying kid smile and laugh and feel loved and focused on and cared for. And I like giving them money to do that. I guess I feel that the people who are inspired to raise money to fight cancer are doing a great job at it. And my job, as I see it, is to make sure other dying kids and their families get the same joy that we and Henry got from Rainbow Trust and Noah’s Ark. It would be accurate to say that I feel called to do so.
