Toy drive grows as Vicki Wray fights eye cancer
Vicki Wray, a two year old from Bowling Green Kentucky, was to undergo surgery at Duke Medical Hospital but the operation was postponed. Harvey said Vicki has received more than 300 cards and letters including a note from two Charlotte boys who pledged 11 cents each. The father, Robert Wray, a 34% millhand with ten children, hopes excess toys will be shared with other underprivileged kids after more than $5,000 in gifts arrived from unknown friends to help fund treatments and support. A State Rep Bate Harvey oversees a fund to raise money for Vicki's operation. Police said another incident involving the same boys was just a scare, not an injury.
