Plus, "Pete Kartsounes & Friends" are playing a Kids With Cancer benefit at Oskars on Thursday night. Since that's the end of Academy week, and since we can safely assume Pete has some great friends in town that week, this is probably a show to see.
It's awesome that Pete is participating in such a deservng cause! My daughter is only just beginning to see the bills roll in from the little nugget's surgeries and treatment. Even though she is covered by insurance, the patient responsibility portion is staggering to this young family.
Please contribute to causes like this in your areas. I sat in the surgery waiting room, and watched a doctor try to explain, via an interpreter, the difference in treatment in normal situations and the situation this uninsured family was in. It was heartbreaking and the memory still brings tears to my eyes.
I hope to see you at Oskars on Thursday night!
