Got the tshirt!

We came. We walked. We got the tshirt. :o)
I was so very proud of mom for making the walk. She suffers from several illnesses, not the least being degenerative bone disease in her spine and shoulders. This is a horribly painful disease and makes walking and sitting very difficult. This photo is after our survivor lap. Daddy could out walk all of us. He walks his farm's hills and hollows every day. A quarter mile around a flat track was nothing for him. :o) Heather walked the caregiver lap with me. And even Miss Jaidyn walked a whole lap. Debbie and Penny were both there to support us. A big thank you to all that supported us in The Relay for Life. Cancer is a wicked thing and the cure needs to be found NOW.
Happy Father's Day Daddy! You are the best daddy to your girls. We love you! Yesterday we had our family celebration. A farmhand supper of chicken/dumplings, green beans/potatoes, buttered carrots, deviled eggs, cottage cheese and tomatoes. Pineapple cake for dessert. Simple fare is so good.
I am blessed. ~Angela

Relay For Life

Cancer is a very real thing in our family. My mom, daddy and myself are all survivors. Daddy and I are still dealing with it. In June, our local Relay For Life event will occur. This is the first time I have participated and sought donations. Shame on me. But this year, I am getting it in gear! I honestly do not know how much I will be able to walk, however, I can do my part with YOUR help. I have joined a great team. These people are dedicated!! To the max. And I can be there for support and encouragement.
You can go HERE to make a donation in my name. I have set a goal of $250. Any amount helps. No matter how small. It all adds up. Thank you so much for considering this. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me. If your own community is hosting a similar event, I encourage you to "get it in gear" also. :o) It is going to take all of us to beat this thing.
EDIT: I was asked about accepting PayPal. You can go here to make a donation through PayPal.




 
Have a sweet day. ~Angela
