​I am participating in Relay for Life once again this year. So many of us have been touched by cancer. If you would like to support my efforts to raise money for the American Cancer Society and Relay for Life, please click the link below.

As many of you might know am a Breast Cancer Thriver (Survivor).  In 2020 during all of the world pandemic chaos, I went in for my annual breast cancer screening and after an additional ultrasound and biopsy, I got the news that nobody wants, I had cancer.  I was blessed to have an awesome medical team who took care of me and after some grueling treatments, I was told that I was NED (No Evidence of Disease).   My care team knew how to fight this terrible disease because research that was in part funded by the American Cancer Society and that is why I support ACS and participate in Relay for life.  

Please consider making a donation to this special organization.  America Cancer Society not only funds research, but they support cancer patients and caretakers through out their journey with the disease.  They gives rides to treatment, provide counseling and so many other services.

If you have a person who had or has cancer that you would like to honor or remember, you can purchase a Luminaria Bag at the link above that will have that person's name on it and will be lit at the event.  It is amazing to see all of the Luminarias at the event each year.

I am raffling off the lap quilt pictured below to raise fund for Relay for Life.  The tickets are $5 each or 6 tickets for $20.  I will enter all donations into the drawing unless you let me know by email that you decline the raffle tickets.

Thank you for supporting me over the years.  This will be my 9th year participation in Relay and your support means the world to me.
