Julia Adams is a young girl with a very grown-up attitude about life. Her Spanish teacher's son Ben has Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a type of blood cancer, the same type of cancer her great great father died from. Even though this form of cancer is one of the more highly treatable cancers, it needs to be taken care of and doing so is expensive. Adams decided to do what she could to help so she held a dance. "It was a lot of work but it was wroth it," she said. "To see all these people come out to help...it really warms your heart."
One of the ways Adams used to raise the nearlt $1,100 was to hold a dollar dance where everyone paid a dollar to have a dance with Ben. Adams got the second dance as shown above. Meadville Tribune photo by Richard Sayer
