My Birthday Wish

Tuesday was my Birthday.  Over the past couple of weeks I have been thinking about what my birthday means to me and what would make it special.  I am at the stage in my life where I don't need much from a store.  As I have reflected, I have thought about the Winter Pineapple Classic and LLS behind it.  I wrote up a paragraph on my fundraising page, that has stuck with me and made me realize what I really want.  Whenever Sarah gets sick or gets a bruise, there is a fear that the Leukemia has returned.  While this fear isn't always visible, it is something that is in the back of my mind.  Watching my child suffer through cancer and the treatment of it, is one of the hardest things that I had to do in my life.  I was helpless to do anything.  I decided to continue to do the Winter Pineapple Classic as a way to do something.  It gives me the opportunity to support an organization that is trying to cure cancer.  While it does that, it is also supporting those who are in the middle of the fight with cancer.  So my birthday wish is to have you support LLS and other organizations fight cancer and work towards a cure.  That and make someone smile each day.
