Grace: A Child's Intimate Journey Through Cancer and Recovery
On this National Cancer Survivor’s Day, I find myself thinking more about those who didn’t survive. I find myself stuffed with thankfulness for life and for love. Please join me in spilling over a bit today…
I am very, very excited about a fast approaching “Mission.”
I call it Children’s Hospital Hope Tour.
My mission (if you know me, please pardon the redundancy,) is to visit “the kids” fighting cancer. I want to know their names; I want to know their faces and I want to hear their hearts. I want to hug them and share in their hope. The mission is to love them. The mission is to make sure that the children who lost their battle will not ever be forgotten.
Awareness. Yes, that is the next big piece of the Mission Pie. We need to keep telling everyone who will listen how childhood cancer research is seriously underfunded. If people truly knew the facts about the lack of funding, there would be change. If I have to get out my bullhorn and hang out of the car as we sit in traffic traveling through cities, well….
Here is a better idea– I will give you my itinerary.
