Hey, this is a bit off topic, but since I retired I've been shuffling around the house trying to find something worthwhile to do.
My daughter is turning 16 in a couple of months and I wanted to do something special for her. My daughter has cystic fibrosis (CF), a rare genetic disorder that has been a real challenge to her. May is CF Awareness week, so for her birthday, I wrote her this little melody called [url=http://www.msu.edu/~maurerb/Sixty%Five%Roses.mp3]Sixty Five Roses[/url] .
The phrase "sixty five roses" is what many children that have the disorder call CF because they can't pronounce "cystic fibrosis". behind how that phrase came about.
So if you have some extra time or the inclination, please consider learning more about CF and what you can do to help. is a good place to start.
