Marathon


Yes I am doing another marathon for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  Every time I finish one I say I am never doing another.  But then I see pictures of Lindsay (my niece who passed away from Leukemia) Jordyn (Christy's daughter who passed away also)  or Josh (my honored hero from the last marathon who is in remission!!! Praise the Lord!) and I know that there is no cure yet.  So I run.  So I raise funds.  The pain of doing those two things can not even compare to the pain that everyone who struggles with leukemia goes though.  (not only the patient but the patients family and friends as well)  So here I go again.  I am sure that most of you will recieve an email (some of you may get two since they were sent from my work email I wasn't sure if you would know who it was so I put my screen name in the subject of the 2nd email!) asking to donate.  Please help if you can.  Even a dollar helps get me toward my goal.  If you do not recieve an email or if you delete it by mistake, here is  the link to donate on line.
