My hobbies
We need more victories!!
The Light The Night® Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s nationwide evening walk to raise awareness of blood cancers and funds for cures.
Participants carry illuminated balloons to celebrate and commemorate lives touched by cancer. Funds raised support the Society’s mission: cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma,
and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
Your participation helps save lives. Anyone can take part. Children, adults and seniors are all welcome. This is a casual walk with no fitness requirements.
Why? My wife is a survivor of Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, and we need more survivors! She’s been cancer free for four years now, we know what the patient, and their family goes thru first hand, and
it’s not easy. We need to find more and better cures.
Her story:
In May 2002, my wife Jackie was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Since then, she has gone thru 6 months of ABVD chemotherapy and 20 radiation treatments, resulting in remission. Unfortunately
the remission only lasted 9 months, and the battle started over. This time the big guns came out...two rounds of ESHAP chemotherapy, one round of CV, and then stem cell collection. On May 26,
2004 she started 4 days of high dose chemotherapy to kill any remaining cancer…and her entire immune system. On June 1st she received her autologous stem cell transplant, and began her
recovery. Now, 4 years later she is still cancer free!
Going thru this once is too much, so we’re doing whatever we can to help keep anyone else from having to go thru it. On Sept. 27, 2008 we will be participating in the Charlotte, NC “Light the
Night” walk. If you can, come join us, and/or make a donation, to help us, help everyone fight blood related cancers.
Thanks!!
