Help me help breast cancer victims and their families..IMPORTANT
When I had my gastric bypass surgery this summer, one of the nursing staff (who was so kind and helpful) and I discussed how we both work in health care, her being in nursing and me being in HR, we also talk about our family. During our daily discussions (I was in the hospital for 5 days) we began chatting about family we have lost to cancer, breast cancer inparticular. I lost an aunt, support another aunt and the nurse had lost 2 sisters and a mother to breast cancer. In honor of my family and on behalf of the nurse who is a godsend, I want to give something back the world (especially these hard times of natural disasters throughout the world), and I have decided to raise as much money as I can to support this deadly disease, that has affected this entire world.
Today, there is more hope than ever for people touched by breast cancer. Early detection and new treatments have contributed to a steady decline in breast cancer mortality rates. However, there is still work to be done. That's why I'm walking in Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. I want to do all I can to support the American Cancer Society's lifesaving research, education, advocacy, and patient services programs so that, someday, breast cancer will no longer be a threat to the women I love.
I therefore reach out to you ALL, my OH friends and family, and request your support and assistance with the fight against breast cancer. Please visit my web site on the American Cancer Society/Kintera Breast Cancer Awareness site at https://www.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=104728&lis=0&kntae104728=E47CE49258F74B3DBAD04554B2F227F8
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
Thank you,

THANKS FOR THE WEB ADDRESS, MICKEY ... WE ALL HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO "GIVE BACK" & MAKE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE & THIS IS A WONDERFUL CAUSE TO SUPPORT.
AS SOON AS I'M ON MY FEET FROM WLS, I'M GOING TO CHECK INTO "MEALS ON WHEELS" FOR THE ELDERLY IN OUR AREA. HERE I HAVE EATEN SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FOOD IN MY DAY & I FOUND OUT WE ACTUALLY HAVE SO MANY OF OUR ELDERLY WHO HAVE SO LITTLE THAT THE ONLY MEAL THEY EAT IN AN ENTIRE DAY IS 1/2 OF THE MEAL THEY GET FROM "MEALS ON WHEELS". WHY 1/2? BECAUSE HEY DON'T USUALLY GET A MEAL EVERY DAY, SO THEY SAVE IT FOR THE NEXT DAY.
FIND A CAUSE THAT TOUCHES YOUR HEARTS, LADIES & GENTS, & GIVE SOMETHING BACK FOR THE HEALTH-GIVING BLESSING WE HAVE/ARE RECEIVING THROUGH WLS!
GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK
