Grace: A Child's Intimate Journey Through Cancer And Recovery
This is finals week. My last final was today! Wow. Wow,wow,wow,wow!
So now, dance performances are over until August and school is out tomorrow. Sigh…
Guess what I cannot wait to do?
Meet you!!!
I am leaving a week from tomorrow, and now that I have a moment to take in what is about to happen in my life, I feel like I need to go to the quiet place of my heart to seek Guidance. How can I, little Melinda, leave this world a better place? How does this intersect with my great desire to help children with cancer? I pray that every step of our journey will help kids with cancer. I hope the children I meet will share their lives with me in their own beautiful ways. I hope while I am gone, you might think about doing something like the following… making lemonade:)
One lovely way to help raise money for childhood cancer research this summer is to make some lemonade and have some fun.

My friends at Pablove on Twitter asked me to vote for this boy… I love him!

Finally, one more linky-dinky today… This is why we need research for less toxic treatments. The treatment is deadly for too many children… one is too many.

Okay… I found one more to share. I want to thank KSBY and Carina Corral. You always show you care about ending childhood cancer, and I am grateful. I am really grateful.
Mom and I have tweaked the end of our trip a bit… I will update the schedule soon. I really don’t own a BullHorn and I probably wouldn’t use it if I had it. Well, hmmm… there is a situation for just about everything… and I am quite passionate!
I will love to meet you along the way!
I am going to go back now to that quiet place of my heart.
God whispers from the quiet place of my heart.
