Author Finds Blessing in Adversity: Vows to Raise $1 Million in 30 Days for Childhood Cancer

Author Frank Lunn launches BlessingsinAdversity.com to raise $1 million for the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the hospital where his son was successfully treated for leukemia.

(PRWEB) August 27, 2004 -- In 2004 approximately 563,700 Americans are expected to die from cancer and 1,510 of those are expected to be children aged 0-14. St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital is striving to change that statistic. Author Frank F. Lunn learned to find blessing in adversity during his son Frankies treatment of leukemia and has started a campaign to raise awareness and funds for St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital, the hospital he credits with saving his sons life.

During Frankies treatment for leukemia at St. Jude, Frank turned adversity into opportunity writing a book with a goal to inspire, educate and empower people to take bold action to reach their dreams. The book, entitled Stack The Logs!, is based on the wisdom and advice from his father who also passed away of a cancer similar to leukemia. Frank addresses blessing in adversity in his book stating, "There is always something to be gained from adversity, setbacks and difficulties. We are just not always trained to see what they are. Once you realize how this works, it is easier to have faith that your current hardships and adversities will work out for the good in the end."

Franks team has set a clear goal of raising $1 million in 30 days for St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital with their current "Blessings in Adversity" Campaign ending Aug 31, 2004. Lunn and his team plan to accomplish this incredible feat through their website BlessingsinAdversity.com. "We are honored and humbled by this task. As we get new visitors and friends to come to our site http://www.blessingsinadversity.com, we know we will get the momentum we need," says Lunn.
