bare_bear: (Uncanny Exclamation)
I'm walking in the Relay for Life in my hometown this weekend!  It's a fundraising event for Cancer research, and we'll be walking from 7 pm to 7 am.  My team was organized by my Grandma, and we will probably be the loudest, brightest group there.  I hope the other participants don't completely shun us! 

I'm walking for a lot of people:
  • My Mom, who's currently doing treatment for breast cancer and who just started chemo last week
  • My Dad, who died in 2006 from complications from throat and lung cancer
  • My Grandma, who has had a form of pelvic cancer (and won!)
  • My Cousin, who died in 2002 from Lukemia
  • My Friend, who also battled breast cancer (and is winning!)
  • Myself, who is dealing with skin cancer, and who suspects that it's back (think I'm past the denial and will be seeing a doc as soon as I move, btw)
  • And many other's who have been impacted by the many faces of cancer.
My team raised over $3000 alone, and there are a great many teams involved.  I hope we can help make a difference!
