Rego is an 8 month year old boy I had the pleasure of meeting Saturday at Watersedge Marketplace on rt 26 in Endicott. He suffers from myoclonic seizures and significant motor delays that he goes to physical therapy for. As you can imagine, his treatments are quite expensive and time consuming. His mother had to leave her job to care for Rego and bring him to various doctor's appointments in Rochester- which is approximately 3 hours from Binghamton depending on the area you live in.

This Sunday, November 18th at the Lisle Fire Station, they are having a benefit for Rego at 1pm. There is a $10 entry fee which will get you soft drinks and dinner. There is also a Chinese auction, 50/50 raffle and live music as well. To make a donation or if you would like even more information call Jenna Bennedum at 607-765-7909 or e-mail her at teamrego23@yahoo.com. Enjoy dinner and entertainment for just $10 while helping out a local family treat their 8 month old boy.
