Prelay

A quick update for you bloggers out there!  Well, 1. hello!  It's been a while, glad to see you, pull up a chair, take off your coat and stay a while!

This quick little diddy is a post in anticipation for tonights festivities.

Chad and myself, his parents, my parents and my sister Heids are headed to Northern VA-my old stomping grounds to attend a Relay for Life event!  It's actually at the old high school at which I led when I lived there.  Coming full circle.  Beautiful.

Anyway, I've been asked to speak a little tonight and share some of my story about having cancer-eek!  I haven't spoken in front of a large group of people since...since the last time I gave a YL club talk I think!  That was in 2011.  Oy vey.

Haha, it'll be fine :)  Cause you know what?  It's not about me!  It's about the fellowship and camaraderie of fellow survivors, family and friends getting together for a good cause.  And hopefully continuing success in cancer eradication!

So if you're interested, check out this website: www.springfieldburkerelay.org.  The whole shebang starts at 7 pm tonight, and goes until 7 am tomorrow morning! Oh, and I speak at 9 pm tonight.

Anyway, stay posted for pictures and memories from this :)
