OK Sickness had claimed me again.....

but I think I am back among the living again. Terrible cold and with me it seems to hit my lungs first thing therefore very hard to get rid of. I am still coughing but feel better than I did.

I have a date change for my Challenge for Life Fundraiser Party. It will now be held on Friday, May 1/09 at the Russell Curling Rink from 7pm - 1 am. The band 3 Mile Tough will be playing a couple of sets for us so I know it will be an awesome event. There will be a silent auction, 50/50 draws, challenge for life and cancer items for sale, food and lots of fun. Come out an join us. Check out http://www.challengeforlife.ca/ and type in my name for more info or if you would like to donate to this great cause. All money raised goes to CancerCare Manitoba.

I have been touched by cancer and have lost a sister to small cell lung cancer. I promised my sister I would try to make a difference so for the last three years I have done that. I have completed two 60 km walks in the Weekend to End breast Cancer, I have participated in two Relay for Life walks in Russell and last year I completed 20km in the Challenge for Life Walk in Winnipeg. I will be participating in this walk again this year. Along with walking, I am fundraising to meet the $1,000.00 minimum.

I am enclosing a poem that I shared with my sister before she passed and we both believe this with all our hearts.
