LukeFlyer   Raffle tickets for the fundraiser will be purchased during the event at McFadden's. The fundraiser will start approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the game. Tickets will be 1 for $5, 4 for $10 and 10 for $20. Load up and spread them around for a chance to win some really great prizes! Let's raise as much as we can for Luke! update: GAME TICKETS ARE SOLD OUT! YOU DO NOT NEED TO ATTEND THE GAME TO JOIN US AT THE FUNDRAISER. Prior to this season we heard about Luke and instantly wanted to find a way to help. We decided to turn one of our outings in to a fundraiser. Hope you can make it out to this amazin' outing for a great cause. Luke and his family will be on hand for the game and afterwards we'll be hosting a fundraiser in McFadden's with tons of great raffle prizes up for grabs. $5 from each game package will go directly to the Lang's along with every penny raised at the fundraiser. McFadden's has also graciously agreed to donate a portion of their sales during the fundraiser as well. To learn more about Luke we asked his Mom Jeannine to write a few words.
"Luke Lang was diagnosed at the age of 5 on March 28, 2013 with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Positive Philadelphia Chromosome (ph+ALL). He has undergone many rounds of adult dose chemotherapy, blood transfusions, platelet transfusions, and numerous amounts of spinal taps (18) with chemotherapy injections. Luke has had many stays at the hospital he is being treated in (Winthrop University) for weeks at a time. Luke has three more years of treatment left. Luke missed three months of Kindergarten and half of first grade. While his friends were playing outside, Luke was either in the hospital or homebound without contact from people because his levels were so low he had no immune system. What has helped Luke was all the love and support from family and friends. He also made a lot of new friends in the New York Mets. While in the hospital Luke watched the games and then watched the reruns the next day. When he was well enough we went to a game and he then became friends with Anthony Recker, John Buck, Justin Turner, Josh Satin, Matt Harvey, just to name a few. Justin Turner and John Buck still keep in contact with Luke. Lukes passion is baseball and the Mets. His room is Met themed. Luke is their biggest little fan. Luke is a true fighter and his motto is "LOSING IS NOT AN OPTION ". It's the motto we live by everyday. LOVE4LUKE. LOSING IS NOT AN OPTION! - Jeannine Lang "
