An important note from Ottawa writer S.Lesley Buxton

Too important to not forward:
The time has come for us to do this...

To our Family, Friends, Acquaintances, and Work contacts:

Our daughter, India Buxton Taylor, is suffering from a one-of-a-kind neurodegenerative disease that unless treated will likely kill her within a year.

We are asking for your help funding research that a University of Ottawa Lab, run by our friend Dr. Steffany Bennett, has undertaken into her condition. She has made some very promising discoveries about her disease and we are hoping that with your support she can speed up her efforts to come up with a viable treatment and perhaps even a cure.

Please visit:

Whether you donate or not we ask that you SHARE this site with as many of your contacts as you are willing to.
It will be critical that as many people as possible see this and that we spread word about India's condition as far around the world as we can. So:

Share overseas
Share with your affiliated organizations
Share with family and ask them to share with their contacts
Share with business organizations
Share with your local media
Share with people you know in the public eye

Anyone who has met India knows she is One Strong Girl.
We are asking you each to form a one-strong network of your own; and cast it as far and as wide as you can.

Mark and Lesley
