Lance Armstrong Endorsement for Grace

Now that Melinda has completed the photo selections and permissions for the new edition of Grace, she is working on obtaining book endorsements.  With all of the “Lance stories” in Grace, not to mention the treasured inspiration he unknowingly blessed  Melinda with during her cancer battle, Melinda would love to have Lance Armstrong endorse her book.  Just wondering if anyone out there in cyberspace might be, say, having dinner with Lance this evening?  How about riding with him tomorrow?  Okay, how about, is there anyone out there who can ask Lance if he will read an amazing book, written by Melinda Marchiano about her journey through cancer and recovery?  If you read this, Lance, thank you again for signing Melinda’s port jar…  it still makes her happy!  Hope the story about you makes you chuckle…

www.fight2win.org… Did you look?

I am hoping you took the time to look at Alese Coco’s Web site, www.fight2win.org.  It is because of people like Alese that I am able to cherish my good health today. (And also Dr. Dan, Cottage Hospital, and, and, and…!)  What she has begun will help so many other children who suffer from this disease.  My heart is with her parents and her family, hoping they receive enormous comfort knowing that Alese left behind something incredibly good.  Now, it is up to the rest of us to carry on her vision of hope.  Alese, I am sending my gratitude to you by Heaven Express Mail… and I will do all that I can to carry this onward.

Hodgkin’s disease Commercial during American Idol

Were you watching American Idol last night?  Wow, wow, and I am not talking about the show itself!  What a surprise, and somewhat of a shock, to see the www.fight2win.org commercial asking for funding for research for Hodgkin’s disease.  The girl in the hospital bed looked just like I did two years ago!  What Alese began with this site is a fruitful seed that will help many other children… I am joining her in this quest for healing knowledge.  While she directs the quest from heaven, I plan on lending my helping hands here on earth.  Join me.
