Relay For Life

This year, our entire family is participating in the Relay for Life, sponsored by the American Cancer Society. Leslie and the kids participated last year. But none of us knew the impact of such an event in the life of our family in the year to come. This year it is a priority for me as well. And so all five of us will go and walk in, specifically in honor of Leslie as a cancer survivor.

Leslie is also the leader at her school for the Relay for Life. It was strange for me the first time I thought of her as a "cancer survivor." And it really struck me when I saw the sticker that stated so.

If you are intersted in sponsoring me during this walk, please visit my Relay for Life personal page to donate. The proceeds of this walk will go to the American Cancer Society to further research and offer support to individuals fighting cancer. The date of the relay is May 30, 2008.
