Tom Sexton

Hey kids, help Tom Sexton and family out.  This in from Linda Johnson, first lady of poker:

“Likely you’ve heard by now that Tom Sexton, Mike Sexton’s brother, is very, very ill. After suffering a massive stroke, he was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer….. his prognosis is a couple of months at best. We have set up a page where his friends can send well wishes, moral support, and even make a donation if desired. Tom’s wife Ann has been reading the messages left in the comment section on his page at
http://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/in-tom-sexton-s-corner/68745 and he is comforted by the caring that his friends have shown.
Tom’s family is doing as well as can be expected, and Mike will go back to Indiana after the main event to be with Tom. Sorry this is not a happier note.
Regards,”
…..

Do help if you can. If you can’t donate cash, send good thoughts and energy for the whole family.
