要说全世界最棒的柠檬水摊在哪儿？两位小老板会骄傲地告诉你：就在阿拉巴马州的郊区。11 岁的梅琳凯特和 12 岁的兰德里这对好朋友，为给 St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® 募捐，在自家社区游泳池旁设立了她们的爱心摊位。  今年夏天，女孩们第三次支起了为 St. Jude 募捐的柠檬水摊。这一次，她们心中装着更宏大的梦想。  短短三个夏天过去，她们已为 St. Jude 募集近 2.2 万美元。她们的秘密武器？正是梅琳凯特本人。她说：“我会告诉大家，‘请给 St. Jude 一份支持吧，St. Jude 曾给了我第二次生命，现在我也想把这份希望传递给更多孩子’。” 2017 年，梅根和保罗从中国收养了即将满三岁的梅琳凯特。尽管他们早已知道女儿髋关节发育不良，但一次常规体检却揭示了更严重的问题——她患有范可尼贫血症。这是一种遗传性血液疾病，会阻碍骨髓制造足够的血细胞，进而导致骨髓衰竭，甚至可能会引发白血病。  梅琳凯特随后被转至 St. Jude 接受监测、输血等治疗，并于 2019 年完成了骨髓移植。由于范可尼贫血症具有高致癌风险，St. Jude 医生至今仍对她保持密切监测。 五十年来，St. Jude 医院已将儿童癌症存活率从 20% 提高至 80% 以上。凭借捐助者的慷慨支持，患儿家庭无需承担任何医疗、住宿、交通及膳食费用。St. Jude 由二代移民丹尼·托马斯于 1962 年成立，致力于为不同种族、信仰或经济状况的癌症患儿及其他重症患儿提供救治。 2023 年夏天，兰德里的母亲伊丽莎白在 Facebook 上看到了一条关于“St. Jude 柠檬水摊挑战”的帖子，这是一项夏日募捐活动，鼓励孩子们通过摆摊来募集善款。 “我们必须参加！”兰德里毫不犹豫地说道，并第一时间邀请梅琳凯特加入自己。  “我喜欢跟梅一起玩，”兰德里说，“我也希望能为 St. Jude 筹到钱，这样的话，小朋友生病的时候，他们的爸爸妈妈就不用为医药费发愁了。” 两个女孩的家只隔了一条街，2021 年夏天，她们在社区游泳池第一次见面、成了好朋友。在兰德里的记忆里，梅琳凯特一直是个健康活泼的姑娘。  “她现在健健康康的，我真的太高兴了，”兰德里说道。她说自己无法想象没有梅琳凯特的世界会是什么样子。她们最爱一起游泳、玩史莱姆，还特别喜欢凑在一起过夜。每次看电影，两个人总是叽叽喳喳说个不停、笑作一团。对她们来说，一起摆柠檬水摊当然也会很有意思。  …

如果你問這兩位自豪的攤位小老闆，她們一定會說，有史以來最棒的檸檬水攤位就在阿拉巴馬州的郊區。11 歲的梅琳凱特和 12 歲的蘭德里是好朋友，她們在家附近的泳池旁擺攤販賣檸檬水，為 St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® 籌款。  今年夏天是這兩位女孩第三次為 St. Jude 擺設檸檬水攤。她們為此有著詳細計劃。  僅僅過去了三個夏天，她們就為 St. Jude 籌集了近 22,000 美元。她們的秘密武器是什麼？正是梅琳凱特。「我和大家說，『請為 St. Jude 醫院捐款，因為我曾經是 St. Jude 的患者，這家醫院救了我的命，我想要幫助其他孩子。』」 2017 年，梅根和保羅從中國收養了梅琳凱特，當時他們就知道快年滿 3 歲的女兒患有髖關節發育不良，但是，常規醫學檢查卻發現了其他問題。梅琳凱特患有範可尼貧血，這是一種遺傳性血液疾病，會導致骨髓無法產生足夠的血細胞，致使骨髓衰竭，在某些情況下甚至可能導致白血病。  梅琳凱特被轉診至 St. Jude 醫院接受治療，包括監測和輸血，並於 2019 年接受了骨髓移植。範可尼貧血具有較高的癌症風險，因此 St. Jude 的醫生對梅琳凱特進行了密切監測。 過去 50 年裡，在 St. Jude 醫院的幫助下，兒童癌症倖存率從 20% 提高到了 80% 以上。在捐助者的支持下，這些家庭從未收到過治療、住房、交通或飲食的帳單。St. Jude 醫院由二代移民丹尼·托馬斯於 1962 年成立，致力於為不同種族、民族、信仰或經濟狀況的癌症患兒及其他重症患兒提供救治。 2023 年，蘭德里的媽媽伊莉莎白在 Facebook 上看到一篇有關 St. Jude 檸檬水攤位挑戰賽的貼文，這是一個鼓勵孩子們擺設攤位並募集善款的夏季籌款活動。 …
