Folks..
25 years ago this week, I lost my older sister to Breast cancer and it always gets me thinking. Hows my mom doing without her daughter?, what did I miss by her not being here?.... why did her treatment work, then just all of a sudden stop.?
This reminded me that I haven't given to CancerSucks yet this year, so I got online to transfer some $$ to the Cancersucks fund on behalf of us(i do this anually).
Soooo....instead, I thought,..instead of going in alone this time, wait a few days and why not try to add a few extra $$ to the Cancersucks donation on behalf of us. Its been a while since we did one.
So, I look to u guys. Its cancer, it sucks, its taken loved ones from so many of us, and Scottie, a long time Brethren, is spearheading Cancersucks BBQ to help fund research. If just one of those dollars we give him can be the one inside a breakthrough that cures or protects one of our children in 20 years, its worth a million bucks.
So, I ask from you... whatever u can spare.. No expectations, no pressure.. This will run only until Tuesday, is totally spur the moment and unsolicited..Where I usually get buy in from the mods and Srs before doing things like this, this time no one knew about it except me and its running fast. So anything u can spare.... a buck, $5, $10.... goes to Cancersucks on Wednesday.
I have started the fund with $100. Hopefully Scotties at a contest and wont be checking in till next week. It will be a nice surprise to know his friends were thinking of him. I know what we are capable of.... be great it we show it off.
Heres the button to make it easy.
