Breast Cancer 3-Day

Laura's still thinking about this, but I'm going to do a survey:

Anybody want to be on a team for Laura for the Breast Cancer 3-Day?

It's October 23-25 in Atlanta. You walk 60 miles over those three days. You bond with each other. You celebrate survivors! You walk for the memory of loved ones. You feel GREAT because you accomplished that goal!

Plus! You get to camp out in pink tents and they feed you!

85% of funds raised goes to the Susan B. Komen for the cure.

15% goes to the National Philanthropic Trust.

There's a $90 registration fee and each participant must raise $2300.

A friend of mine walked a few years ago and her team of 9 raised over $47,000! So, even though it seems huge, I'm pretty sure we can do it if we want to...

If you THINK you're interested, sign your name in the comments section.

Hoopin' It!

Laura has found a new hobby... Watch it at:

She met a breast cancer survivor who designs the hoops. Here's her card.

"For Healing, family, laughter, fitness"

Cancer cannot conquer my spirit.

Here's a toast to my sister!!

Way to go, Laura!

Seven Down, One to Go

This Thursday Laura goes in for her LAST (yippee!) chemo treatment.

She's not looking forward to it.... Don't misunderstand. She thinks the people are great... the nurses, the patients, the doctors... But she's just plain tired of getting poked and having that poison interrupt her life.

From my perspective, she's been a really good sport. She's faced all the unpleasantries with grace and poise. And, while she hasn't denied that it's been UN-FUN, she's put up with it way better than I think I would.

Please pray for Laura. Pray that this Thursday would be okay. Pray that the side effects will be miraculously less awful than usual. Pray for her as she faces the upcoming surgery (which I have mentioned, she isn't looking forward to..)....

Thanks, again, for the love you've shown to her in so many ways. You have made this much more bearable for her.
