Oochigeas the Heroine

Dear Mr. Welker,

The Multimedia Development Lab is a student run web site design class at Boston University. Every semester the MDL creates a web page for a non-profit organization, this semester we are creating a site called the Ooch, after Oochigeas the heroin you wrote about on your site. The Ooch is a site for children with cancer to participate with on the web. MDL felt that the story of Oochigeas is the most inspirational story for us to use on our site.

MDL is in the process of creating a protype for our client. In an attempt to educate our client and our future users about the Oochigeas story, we intend to use your story as a REFERENCE. Although we will be changing the story considerably, MDL wanted to make you aware of our intentions.

Thank you for your time in this matter.
