Make-A-Wish gifts
stolen from recipient
PLAINVIEW (AP) — It was like
Christmas in September for Leah
Rushing.
That’s until someone stole all the
gifts given to the fifth grader by the
Make-A-Wish Foundation while she
was undergoing chemotherapy to
combat an abdominal tumor.
The gifts, a new bicycle, clothes,
videocassette recorder, color TV,
cassette tapes and Nintendo games,
disappeared from the Rushings’
home here Sept. 28 during Leah’s
chemotherapy.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation
grants special requests to children
with severe illnesses.
“This burglary ... brought me
down,” Martha Rushing, Leah’s
mother, said. “I feel soyry for (the
burglars). If they have a conscience,
they should feel bad. But, on the
other hand, it could’ve been worse.
More could’ve been taken or we
could’ve been injured.”
The burglars had the heist well
planned, Rushing said.
“They know of Leah’s plight and
they know what stuff is here,” she
said. “Plainview is not that big of a
place. What’s really bad is that who
ever it was had to know of the cir
cumstances — that I was here a lot
and that the Make-A-Wish people
had visited. They also had to know
me.”
Leah said she was upset about the
theft. But she was relieved her
mother wasn’t hurt.
Two weeks before the theft, Leah
was diagnosed with neuroblastoma,
a r^re form of cancer affecting the
autonomic nervous system in young
children.
