Mothers/Fathers Day Idea

I'm only posting this here since y'all know that I am battling cancer and have kept up with my story.

I got an email from the Lance Armstrong Foundation about how you can make a donation to LAF and they'll send a Mothers or Fathers Day card to your honoree. Since my mother, mother-in-law and father-in-law have everything they could ever want or need, I decided to do that this year. The "suggested donation" is only $10 but I donated more since I would have spent more on a gift.

If you also agonize over what to get your folks on these days, I thought I'd share. The treatments for cancer are getting better but there is so much more that needs to be done in both treating and preventing it. The longer we live, the greater our chances of getting cancer and because of our decisions to lose weight, we are likely to live longer!

Here's the link to the donations page: https://www.kintera.org/site/c.khLXK1PxHmF/b.4039587/apps/ka/sd/donor.asp?c=khLXK1PxHmF&b=4039587&en=jtJNL4PSLdKMI4OFLcLRI9MYJkIUJdMUJrJ0K5ONKkKYJmL&tr=y&auid=3617165

Thanks for listening to this November Nymph. I'm doing fine, by the way. I had a rough passage of Triscuits and spinach dip through my band the other day, which caused me to decide to get another 1cc out at my next visit in two weeks. I'm successfully maintaining (with the help of treatment side effects :)) but losing weight is the least of my worries these days. I'm back into size 16 and even an occasional size 14 and feeling pretty good about that! :thumbup:

Hi Kendra,

What a great idea! I am definitely going to check it out.

It sounds like you are doing great. Good for you for getting into a 16 and 14. I know that isn't your main focus at the moment but getting that weight of probably gives you more energy to help with the kickin' and stompin'. I am still stompin' for you too.

Take care,

Jill

This is a great idea Kendra. I'm glad to hear that things are heading in the right direction... keep kicking George's butt... should be in China by now !! :frown:
