Show How Much You Care
Light A Luminaria For Someone You Love
This
page was made for those
that
know me and for those that don’t.
For those that know me you
know that I live in a very small town in central Florida.
We’ve (the community) have
gotten together to help the American Cancer Society
with their “Relay for
Life”
What is Relay for
Life?
Click on the link below and
read all the wonderful things that happen during a relay.
I’ve joined for many reasons.
Here are a few:
I watched my best friend get
diagnosed with cancer.
They took out an eleven pound
tumor, the size of a football.
I watched everyday as she
lost weight until she was half of her body size.
I worried that she would lose
too much and die if the chemo didn’t kill her first.
I watched one of the
strongest women I know cry beg me to let her give up and
die.
I watched as every strand of
hair (except one) on head fell out.
I watched her lose all of her
bodily functions.
I watch her cry and hang her
head as I bathed and cleaned her up.
I fed her, loved her, and
comforted her.
I aggravated her and frankly
pissed her off. More then once believe me.
But I never let her give
up.
I watched as the days passed
until finally she started to grow stronger and stronger.
That was eight years
ago.
Thanks to God and the
research and development of new technologies to fight cancer she’s still my best
friend.
Some more reasons I joined
are:
I watched my Dad lose the
woman he had been married to and loved for30 years
die a slow painful death. It
tore my heart out not being able to help him or her.
My niece has been diagnosed
with cancer.
She has a22-month
son.
And we don’t know if she will
make to see him start school.
We pray she
does.
For all the people that have
been through this awful thing.
For the hope that maybe
someday no one else will.
I joined to help.
