The Bona Fide Meetup and Bill Murray themed Costume Battle was a smash hit. Chivers knocked this one out of the water raising over $22,500!   HOUSTON, TX (August, 12, 2014) | The Houston Chivers proudly announced totals over $22,500 raised at their Bona Fide Meetup and Costume Battle benefiting the Jamie’s Hope Foundation on May 24th. Scotty’s Pub at 10943 Scarsdale Blvd hosted a Bill Murray themed costume party, raffle and silent auction that was one for the record books! Chivers came from near and far to celebrate and support Jamie’s Hope in their mission to fund targeted therapy research at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center while supporting the Houston community and helping those directly affected by cancer. As the Fireball was flowing, Chivers bid on a wealth of items donated by local businesses and artists. The Houston Rockets’ Power Dancers were on hand to pose with the Chivers and sign autographs. Monster Energy Drink provided guests with all the energy needed to dance the night away. The raffle, silent auction, and t-shirt sales were a huge hit, bringing in a record-breaking $22,500 in total for the event. Playing major roles in the success of the event were Houston Chivers administrators Jennifer Matte and Stephanie Fluharty, with supervisors Shawn Demaree, Beau Frederic, Dan Grant and Mike Standley leading a team of dedicated volunteers. Houston Chivers can be found on Facebook, Twitter (@HoustonChivers) and Instagram (@HoustonChivers). “What a blessing! We were blown away by the donation amount The Houston Chivers and Scotty’s Pub raised.” Jamie Gilmore, founder of Jamie’s Hope. ‘Without such support, Jamie’s Hope wouldn’t...

This is so horrible. No child should have to endure this #CancerSUCKS!!!! #EndCancer #TeamRorie Team Rorie – we need each and everyone of you more than ever. As many of you knew from our previous post that Rorie’s lung functions had slowly started to make little improvements which had re-lit the fire in our hearts and gave us that boost of motivation to keep fighting. As of the last few days Rorie hit a plateau with her breathing machine/ ventilator. She stayed stable for a few days making no improvement. Yesterday Rorie’s need for oxygen started to increase. The team of doctors is having to up the amount of oxygen she receives and also increase the amount of pressure she is receiving with every breathe while her blood/oxygen saturation are still dropping off. This morning we noticed Rorie was starting to swell on her arms and in her face. The doctors initially thought it was possibly a clot in her pic line where she receives majority of her medications so they ordered an ultrasound. While the technicians were performing the ultrasound a large bulge appeared on her stomach which really alarmed the doctors. After some discussion they decided to follow the ultrasound with an x-Ray. (Now this is where my emotions come into play and I knew it would be hard just typing this post) the x-Ray shows that with the significant amount of oxygen/pressure she is receiving, her lungs have stretched and oxygen is starting to seep into her body causing major discomfort. The only option the doctors have is to drop the amount of oxygen and pressure to see if...
