Relay For Life

What an amazing experience it was! I want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart for all the encouragement and hugs that night! Seeing all the luminaries with my name on them just brought me to tears. Thank you to every one of you that purchased one in my honor. Here are a few photos to share from relay last Friday night:

Thank you, Gay Cornell, for all you did to make it a wonderful night for many!

Last Friday I had my LAST chemo until the sct! Finally, a break! We head back to Houston on August 1st, so I will have the rest of the summer to enjoy! I will be asking everyone who would like to stay in contact with me during the 2 months we are in Houston to post your email address for me, or email me. I will still post updates on this blog while we are there. I know many of you read this blog for updates. It seems everytime I am out somewhere, I run into someone who tells me that they read it almost everyday. I just had no idea so many of you know of this site. (Quit hiding and post a hi--I want to know who all is lurking!)

Please also continue to keep my friend, Terri Hill, in you prayers! She is having a rough time. She was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor a few months ago. Prayers to you, Terri!!!!!

If you all have a free afternoon on Thursday, June 28th, from 4:30-5:00, stop by the College and see the play, "Curious George" that the summer theatre camp is putting on. (Raisa is Curious George and Larson is a brother who loses his ballon--it's his first play!)

Ah! Kasey.
Your attitude & determination bring these lyrics of Helen Reddy to mind:

"I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

You can bend but never break me
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul."

That ole' ever-ready-battery bunny is put to shame by your " electric " energy...powered by faith,you require no batteries!

Thanks for the pictures..you are glowing.

LuvNprayers4U....Karen

Kasey,

Your hair looks really cute! Nice color! Thank you for doing the Relay for Life.

I'm glad that you're plugging along through treatment on your way to the SCT.
