Livestrong!
I am going yellow today for Livestrong. Thanks to Milo and Alfie, and Ann of Zoolatry for all their organizing. Our message is FOCUS, NEVER give up HOPE, Have a FIGHTING attitude, have COURAGE and know we ALL SUPPORT you. LIVESTRONG! We believe in the POWER of the PURR!
I am dedicating my post to the Memory of family and loved ones who have died of cancer, and in Honor of family and loved ones who are cancer survivors.
In memory of Mom's mother, and Dad's mother, Mom's grandfather, and Mom's sister. Also kitties Smudge and Kimi and Belle. Also Sniffie and Yuu-Chan, and Maxxdog, and all the others who have died from cancer.
In honor of my Dad, his brother, friends Rosmarie, Sue, David and Carl, coworkers Mark and Marc, and kitties who are surviving with cancer such as my friend Herman with FeLV. Also Vic, and Milo and Alfie's Mom and Dad.
If we have left anybody out who we should have included, it is not on purpose.
Mom bought five yellow Livestrong wristbands today, one for her, one for Dad, and three to give away. We will do a drawing from the names of all those who say in comments that they would like to be included: then we will get your addresses and post them to you.

Cancer has touched too many of us. We purr for all of those we have lost and for all of those who still are fighting this terrible disease. LIVESTRONG!!

I see that the terrible cancer has touched your family. I too pray for those that have lost this battle and continue to pray each day for those fighting right now to regain their health. I saw that you had some Livestrong wristbands. I don't have one and will take you up on the offer of receiving one from you. I will wear it to help promote awareness needed to help fight this illness.
ReplyDeleteWe are amazed at the huge numbers of cats who have come out for LiveStrong! Wow. We too are LiveStrong for those who live with cancer
