Calling friends in Houston

If there is anyone out there in Houston who might be able to help: A colleague at work has a 5 year old niece with leukemia. They will travel to MD Anderson in Houston for treatment, but don't know anyone there. They've asked me to help. I tell them that it is a big country and I don't know everybody. Unfortunately, I don't have friends in Houston.

They probably won't need to ask any questions, but it might make them feel better just to have a point of contact there. They speak English and have resources. They are just looking for a friend incase they get in a jam.

Can anyone help?

    Hi, I know this is a super old post, but I wanted you to know that I am from Houston, and used to work at MD Anderson. I have many contacts there. If you ever need anything in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me, I would be happy to help.

Thanks for stopping by and it is so nice to hear from you! Just a few words on commenting: Through this blog, I won’t tolerate intolerance, hatred, finger-pointing or personal vendettas. If I even get those types of comments, I will most likely delete them because I believe it defeats the purpose of positive efforts and energy. Stop the hate.
