I can't believe what I just read on CNN about the young lady (Leanna Elizalde) and the fact that her high school is not willing to acknowledge her accomplishments toward graduation. SHAME ON THEM!!

Can you help change their minds? I've provided a link to the school and I've called and left a message from TEXAS, can you do the same?

Being ill, especially with CANCER is terrible, not being allowed to walk because you are a credit short is HORRIBLE.

The link to Woodland High is here:

I'm a parent of a child who has been on chemotheraphy (for JRA) and it made her sick as can be. I can't imagine what Leanna went through with having to take chemotherapy at much higher doses for her cancer. Leanna Congratulations on being a 2008 graduate. May God Bless you and I wish you the best in your struggle with cancer and in your future.
I've e-mailed CNN in hopes that they will put a "VOTE" or link at their site. Thanks to everyone so far. I hope this helps Leanna get the acknowledgement she deserves.
