I just
got off the phone with my Aunt Nancy - she's the one who made me the amazing
Undy quilt. She called to tell me that the high school is planning to
wear BLUE tee shirts next Friday, in celebration of Dress in Blue
Day!
I was in tears when she told me. How cool is this?!?!?! I can't wait to hear more about it - I am so grateful for her efforts to further this cause, and I am just beyond excited that we might make an impact on one person - that's all it takes to save a single life.
Love you, Aunt Nancy!

Later:
The media
blitz (or, what I hope will be the media blitz) has begin for Central AZ's
advocacy in March - I got a call today from a local television station
looking to set up an interview regarding Colon Cancer Awareness month.
AWESOME! I am so excited - while I do enjoy being on tv (um, sort of), I
truly get a charge out of knowing that people watch this and we MIGHT have an
impact on a single person. Isn't that what we all fight for - to make a
difference? I know I do - and, I will take all the help I can get.
Here's hoping that we can get some coverage for our bike run next weekend *gulp* and continued support for the Undy in October - let's end Breast Cancer Awareness month by turning the streets of Phoenix BLUE!!!
Ahem. Sorry.
The other thing I wanted to mention is that I do have another health blog that I've started - the link is on the right hand side of this page, but it's also here. What started out as a way to keep me accountable to the internet regarding my workout schedule has morphed into a way for me to inform others of my struggles as I train to run in the Undy 5000 on October 30 (tentatively scheduled). It's not an easy journey, but neither is cancer. What's running 3 miles compared to months of chemo, surgery, nausea, exhaustion, etc......blech. Running - please. I can handle that - or, I will be able to, soon.
