Day 141 - May 21, 2010
Every year a whole group of us walk at the Relay for Life in Newington which helps raise funds for cancer research. Being as though cancer has definitely struck close to home, this is a very dear cause to me. Our team is called Jane's Rangers, a team originally started in honor of Jane Ranger, but now we walk in memory of her. I was struck by how many of the luminaries last night said "In Memory of..." There has to be a way to find a cure for cancer - too many people still fall victim to this horrible disease. I am thankful everyday that my dad was lucky and his prostate cancer was found very very early, however others are not so lucky. Please keep people in your thoughts as they fight hard to beat cancer, and those who work tirelessly to find a cure.
Until Tomorrow,
Athina
