Racing for Autism to visit Nova Scotia
The Racing for Autism Cars will be in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada
May 28-30, 2010
We are planning to meet with the family of James Delorey.
The entire Nation desperately glued to the media in December 2009 as we hoped for a miracle.
James Delorey an autistic 7 year old child wandered from his home and spent two nights in near freezing temperatures. Sadly James succumbed to hypothermia shortly after being found - just over a kilometer from his home. The family dog, Chance, stayed with James the entire time and would not leave his side until the very last moments.
www.cbc.ca/canada/nova-scotia/story/2009/12/08/ns-delorey-dies.html
This tragedy really hit home for us. Our own daughter is the same age as James, and she too is a run away, constantly wanting to explore the outside world. We know all too well the constant fear and worry that most of us live with on a daily basis. Because of this connection we felt the need to help. Ray set out to do fundraising to help the family and raised over $5000 to help with some of their expenses.
