DR. SEUSS AND FRIENDS: Friends of Children’s National Medical Center pulled out all the stops for their signature Heroes Gala, raising $689,000 to help create the Dream Clinic in Oncology there. Chairs Elizabeth and Lee Blalack chose a Dr. Seuss theme for this year’s occasion. “After our own daughter’s triumph over childhood cancer, we were moved by Dr. Seuss’s advice that ‘unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better,’” Elizabeth Blalack noted.
