We wired the money Jana raised to Meihua\u2019s family about a week ago, and our coordinator in China told Meihua how \u201cAuntie Jana\u201d had raised this money in honor of her own birthday. Meihua said she was very touched and inspired by Jana\u2019s big heart, thinking of others instead of just thinking about her own life. She said she hopes to grow up to be a woman like Jana someday and help children who need it. I\u2019ll be meeting Meihua personally in a couple of weeks, and will look forward to sharing the photos of Meihua\u2019s new prosthetic legs with Jana and all of her wonderful friends!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Huang Meihua, the 12 year-old girl who was the recipient of my birthday wish donations, sent this thank you note to me and to all of those who contributed.
