Thanks to all of you that have donated to last year’s Light the Night and this year’s Hike for Discovery. My experience in the Grand Canyon was amazing and something I will never forget. I can not picture many better ways to celebrate one year of being Cancer Free! I am still doing well health wise and continue to be Cancer Free. Unfortunately there are many people that are not as blessed as me and continue to fight and that is why I need your help to continue to raise money for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society. Please see below if you are able to support this amazing cause!

Thank you all very much in advance for your support!
