How parents of seriously sick children cope, I have no idea. We have offered any help that we can give, and are all devastated by the news, but even we are removed from the full force of the horror.

Imagine living with the knowledge that your child has a life-threatening illness and all you can do is hope.

Or worse, imagine that there is no longer any hope.

Over the last few weeks I have been working on a new ebook about the power of creating your own Mastermind group. I had planned to launch it this week at $9.99 as the first in a series of short, to-the-point eBooklets.

But now I’ve had a change of heart.

I’ve watched from a distance as ‘L’ has endured sickness and tiredness from the chemotherapy. I’ve listened to my daughter talk about how ‘L’ wakes up every morning and expects to see her hair left behind on the pillow. I’ve even joked with ‘L’ about the bubble that doctors have implanted in her chest to make giving her frequent injections a little easier.

In my feelings of absolute frustration at being unable to help a funny, happy, crazy, and loving little girl who is brave beyond words, I’ve reached an acceptance and a decision.

I’ve accepted that I can’t help her. She is responding to treatment, thank the Lord, and despite her serious condition, is probably better off than many children who are not.

My decision is that I, with your help, can do some small thing for the many thousands of other children who are without hope of recovery or survival.

What I am doing is to sell my ebook ‘How to Build Your Own Mastermind Group to Catapult Your Success’ entirely on behalf of the Starlight Foundation charity. 100% of the money I receive for this book, after bank or Paypal fees, will be donated.

The Starlight Foundation does not try to find the cures for the many diseases that children succumb to. They are not a medical charity. These wonderful people, who are mostly volunteers, try to bring a little happiness into the lives of children whose lives have little joy left.

They grant wishes. They provide entertainment in hospitals and hospices. They organize outings and activities for those children who are able. They help over 100,000 children every month in over 1,000 hospitals worldwide.

So what can we do to help?

I’ve reduced the price of my book to just $7.50 so pretty much everyone can afford it.

Down below you will find two simple Paypal buttons. One will let you buy the book at $7.50. The other button is a Paypal ‘donate’ button. Please use this one if $7.50 is too much for you, or you would like to donate more. You will set the price.

I will keep nothing. Every penny, cent, dollar and pound I receive will go to the Starlight Foundation.

Note to newsletter publishers: If you have a mailing list, here is the worst JV offer you will receive this year: offer this book to your list and receive absolutely nothing in return!

Except, of course, the knowledge that you’ve helped some very sick kids to smile.

I make no apologies for the blatant attempt to pull on your heart-strings. My aim is to raise as much money for this wonderful cause as I can.

Please help me to help the Starlight Foundation to help critically and terminally ill children.

And along the way, get an ebook that may catapult your success.
