sorry babe, as soon as I have cash I will definitely donate to your cause. Honestly, our budget has us living paycheck to paycheck until December to get out of credit card debt. I will have cash to donate (even if it’s a measely 10 bucks) before then though…great cause.

Cancer survivor since 2003. Can’t have children, but I can help kick some cancer-booty for others.
Payday is tomorrow. Will be donating for sure.

Actually, I am thinking about buying you the flask just to see what kind of tom-foolery goes on as the miles go by. That would be soooo worth it. And I am passing the link on to everyone so get ready to get poor!!! (LOVED that line!!)

Ok, I am old enuf to get cancer. I have skin cancer and I had prostate cancer. My wife had lymphoma, yet neither of us feel that we “have cancer.”

I mean, old people get cancer, well, young ones do also, but its thought of as being something you get when your looking at AARP membership drives, or you actually sit AND watch PBS beg-a-thons. And while I rip up the AARP apps, and never see PBS beg-a-thons, and I hope YOU stay gainfully employed for 20 more years so I can retire, i dont see us as being old enough for C.

What i am grateful for is great health insurance, and making my wife get a physical when she felt fine, and thats when they found her lymphoma. Then while she was going through her chemo, I found out I had prostate cancer, so when she was healthy enuf to take care of me, I got gutted like a woman having a hysterectomy. Yep, same pose, same stirrups, same pain. Man-o-man, wearing depends for 6 months suxs big time. But now we are both past that, well, i still get skin crap cut out like bad scenes in a bad movie, but I see that as maintenance.

The one thing being cancer survivor’s has going for it, never having to get bugged by blood banks. i guess they put you on the same list as AIDS patients when you tell them you had cancer.

Gotta see the good in all things!

Kristablla, on your walk, do you want beer aid stations instead of the usual gatoraide or water?

I mean, wouldnt your system go into anaphylactic shock if you drank water?

Also sucked in from the safety of my reader (and trying to adjust from the two hour time difference from Vancouver to Chicago – this is as bad as the transition to daylight savings. Either that or its all the beer).

Although, I have to say Chicago is really conducive to walking, generally. Much more so than Vancouver is.
