Dr Hymes,
     
        I just visited your internet hoaxes page to find any information
regarding this chain mail letter. I have cut the mile long header and only 
included the first header that appeared on the copy I received.  I've 
received the letter from two seperate sources and think that this is 
probably wide-spread by now.  I only wanted information regarding it's 
validity so that I may confidently inform those who have forwarded it to me 
that it is a forgery.  Thank you for any information you could send me.

LITTLE JESSICA MYDEK IS SEVEN YEARS OLD AND IS SUFFERING 
FROM AN ACUTE  AND VERY RARE CASE  OF CEREBRAL CARCINOMA. 
THIS CONDITION CAUSES SEVERE MALIGNANT BRAIN  TUMORS AND IS 
A TERMINAL ILLNESS.  THE DOCTORS HAVE GIVEN HER SIX MONTHS 
TO LIVE.   AS PART OF HER DYING WISH, SHE WANTED TO START A 
CHAIN LETTER TO  INFORM PEOPLE OF THIS CONDITION AND TO SEND 
PEOPLE THE MESSAGE TO  LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST AND ENJOY 
EVERY MOMENT, A CHANCE THAT SHE WILL NEVER HAVE. 
FURTHERMORE, THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY AND SEVERAL 
CORPORATE SPONSORS HAVE AGREED TO DONATE THREE CENTS
TOWARD CONTINUING CANCER RESEARCH  FOR EVERY NEW PERSON 
THAT GETS FORWARDED THIS MESSAGE.  PLEASE GIVE JESSICA AND 
ALL CANCER VICTIMS A CHANCE.  IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS, 
SEND THEM TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY AT ACS@AOL.COM.
     
Here's the story right at the top to save you the trouble of scrolling 
through everything.  Here's the deal: Basically for every new person 
you
forward this to, the American Cancer Society will donate three cents 
toward cancer research.  So please send this on as I am  sure many 
people you know (some probably family) have cancer.  If not send it on 
for those that do.  Hey!!   It's for a good cause so please don't just
     
delete
it.  Maybe you don't know anyone with cancer, but it really hurts to 
see
someone you know dying of cancer.  Thanks.
     
P/S   Sorry for all of you that didn't want to get this but I think it 
is 
 an
important cause and worth while all you have to do is send it on and 
send one to ASC@aol.com.
