Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 4238644, member: 35"] Over on the men's board there is a thread titled 'Young Huskie fighting for her life'. It is at the bottom of page one now...perhaps going to page 2 soon. Aubrien...a 14 year old Huskie fan....and her family are in a tough situation. Her Dad...a Boneyarder...let the men's board know about it and they have responded in a variety of beautiful ways. The Dad's board name is: uconnsouth. He has posted some pictures and a newspaper article describing what Aubrien and the family have been going through....they reside in Florida. Aubrien had a huge wish to attend the UConn/Villanova game in MSG. And she got that wish...in part thanks to the board reaching out to Director of Athletics Dave Benedict....who promptly responded with tickets for that game. Not a good ending for UConn but for sure Aubrien and her folks loved being there. UConnsouth has contributed to the lengthy thread with updates. It will be a long process for Aubrien but I figure the more support she receives....whatever actions that support takes...will do nothing but help her in her fight against stage 4 cancer. HuskyNan gave the OK to post this on our board...probably some of us don't read the men's board with quite the ...uhh...fanaticism... we do our own. Check out that thread...the men's board response combines heart-breaking and life-affirming posts. Check it out. Go Huskies...women and men and Aubrien! [/QUOTE]
