Day 81 of...98 Days...Happily Ever After

Today I would like to talk about the Happily Ever After that has been occurring because of the advanced research taking place due to donations that have been received.  The Happily Ever After here is being translated to mean a survivor of blood cancer who is in remission. One such survivor today reached out to me with a donation.  She is a very good friend of Steve and has been in remission for years. I was struck by the fact that she has sacrificed so much but yet as you can imagine still wants to contribute further to therapies and research so ultimately a cure can be found.


I have pictured here a couple of other survivors.  I'm thrilled to share they are both in remission all because of the continued funding we provide to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society so that they can locate the top researchers who develop advanced therapies and working toward the cure.  They are William who is 10 and Lauryn who is 7.  They have both been very involved in this campaign in fact they are the Boy and Girl of The Year.  Their parents understandably are heavily involved spearheading fund-raising efforts all of the time because they know if we can fund research and find a cure their precious children can continue to live happily ever after cancer free.


You and I we can make that happen it's not only with a prayer but it's with dollars for research and no donation is too small it all adds up. Let's write the happy ending to this story together.
