Good Morning to everyone~
Five years ago this month I made a promise to my 6th grade teacher, and dear friend that I would do whatever I could to help find a cure for Cancer. I was at her bed side when I made that promise and it was three days before she passed away to cancer.
The following four years after her dying, I was the event chair for My city's Relay for life. Relay for life is a huge event that raises money for the American Cancer society. This year I am a team Captain for the 2009 Relay. If you would like to donate any amount of money to my personal fund raising goal I would appreciate it SO MUCH! If you donate, you can email me your address and I will send you a purple HOPE bracelet, and you can wear it in honor or in memory of someone dear to you.
Together WE can make a difference!!

This is a great commitment! People like you make a difference.
I will donate a little bit. It's all that I can afford that this time. I had Melanoma 2 years ago and my grandfather died of Brain Cancer almost 8 years ago. I too would love to find a cure for thes evil disease.
I admire you for doing Relay for Life. I am looking into events in my area to participate in.
Thanks for making a difference!
Hey Melissa...I just found out we're matched up for the favorite things swap. I've had so much fun reading through your older posts and look forward to putting a package together for you! I LOVE the video of your daughter chasing the laser! I'm so sorry to read about your miscarriage a couple of months ago. I lost a baby last June at 17 weeks. I'm now 8 weeks from delivering my first little boy, but I still miss my baby who's in heaven right now. I'm praying for you as you grieve and miss your precious tiny one.
Hey, Sweetie! You're so awesome! Everyone should donate!
Hope you're having a beautiful day!
Love you so much!!
