I think I went there when I was a kid.
Is this love big enough to watch over me?
Big enough to let go of me

These ads don't annoy me--just sadden me a little. I think St. Jude Hospital is a wonderful charity that does great things for children fighting cancer. I've even donated money to St. Jude before.

The one problem I have with this ad is: "No child is ever turned away because of a family's inability to pay." It always makes me wonder: Why can't this apply to everyone in every hospital? I think of the movie John Q, in which Denzel Washington actually ends up fighting COPS AND THE LAW to get his sick kid a heart transplant.
