The Leaf of Life Fund invites you to their “BOWL FOR LIFE” fund raiser for teenage burn victim Sheneil Walcott. As a stand-by patient, Sheneil’s call date for her evaluations and surgical procedures was slated for early 2009, however, due to her surgeon’s schedule Sheneil’s procedures were rescheduled; beginning this May through September, 2008. Sheneil underwent her most recent surgery, a 13 hour procedure on Friday May 16th for repairs to her nose, upper lip and neck. Dr. Riina, Chief Plastic Surgeon-Burn Unit says that Sheneil will need at least 1 additional year of reconstructive surgeries. Even though Nassau University Medical Center has donated over 90% of the hospital/medical fees which are currently estimated to be over 2 million dollars, to date, much help is still needed. The Leaf of Life Fund is now forced to create a mode of EMERGENCY fund raising efforts to support Sheneil’s admission fees, out patient care, some clinic and medical supplies, all prescriptions and special sterile articles of clothing; in addition to the continued housing accommodations and living expenses.

SHENEIL WILL BENEFIT FROM THIS EVENT AS THE MONEY RAISED WILL GO DIRECTLY TO HER IN-HOME POST OPERATIVE CARE–Prescriptions, Medical Supplies, Clothing AND LIVING EXPENSES.

Harlem Lanes has come on board to help the Leaf Of Life with our financial fight by accommodating us at a charity rate.
