Last Saturday (26 April) at Daniels on Route 1 in Elkridge, there was a benefit held to raise money for Madalyn Jackson. Madalyn is a six year old born with a very painful disease called Osteogenesis Imperfecta (commonly known as "brittle bone" disease.) She has had over 80 breaks in her lifetime, and has endured eight painful surgeries to help strengthen her bones. A few months ago, Krista and I had an opportunity to shoot a photography session with Madalyn and her family. She is an amazing girl, with a wonderful attitude.
The benefit money raised will be used for transportation equipped with a wheelchair lift, medical bills and expenses, and training for an assistance dog. We took photos during the event, which also included the annual "Blessing of the Bikes," and hope to post them online soon. Check back on this blog, or on our web site (www.gokanda.com) for a link to the photos.
The photos will be available for purchase, and half of all proceeds from sales will go to benefit Madalyn.
