I have been to this event many times. In fact, I had not missed a year until last year since 2001.
For those of you that are not aware THON is a crazy event that is run entirely by the student body. All funds go to childhood cancer and most stays in the state of PA. If a child is treated in Hershey Medical Center for cancer, 4-Diamonds (the organization that gets all the funds) will pay for all meidcal expenses not covered by insurance.
Some of you may know, but my middle daughter Libby was diagnossed with AML in July 2000 when she was just 11 months old and was treated at HMC. While she gave her life to the disease just six months later, were it not for these kids, she may have not had a chance.
While many college students are worried about chasing skirts and getting drunk, these students go above and beyond in a way most people can not imagine.
