Ashleigh has 4 local friends who were also diagnosed
with Neuroblastoma within a year of Ashleigh’s diagnosis.
Her dear friend Molly Cavera was diagnosed 3 months
before Ashleigh. Her parents organized a Bounce
Party fundraising event to generate more awareness
of Neuroblastoma in March 2005 in honor of all the
girls, raising about 3000.00$ for the Children’s
Neuroblastoma Cancer Foundation. A wonderful article
“Families Unite to battle cancer, raise research
funds” was written in the local paper.
Read on for
the details. For more information on how
you can help make a difference, visit The Children’s

for Therapeutic Riding |

Ashleigh had a wish…to ride a horse. Through
the kindness and generosity of the staff at The
Equest Center, Ashleigh’s wish came true and she
made a friend forever with “Freckles” the horse.
When Ashleigh got too sick for a return visit to
Freckles, he made a visit to Ashleigh, right in
her house. A wonderful article was written about
Ashleigh and Freckles in the Equest Center’s 2006
annual
newsletter. For more information on the
