I used to volunteer quite a bit in high school and I honestly miss it. As an adult I've donated money to Susan G. Komen, The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Stand Up To Cancer, and The Neuroblastoma Society. Next month my family will be participating in the Walk to Remember for my cousin's still born daughter, Kyrah. Next year I would really like to contribute more and do my part to volunteer. My family is affected by cancer in so many forms and having some thing to believe in and support makes me heart sing.
Cancer affects everyone. Both my Dad and my Grandpa died from it. I just lost a close friend to cancer last month. he will be missed.
ReplyDeleteAs individuals the best thing we can do is to give and help raise money for cancer research.
I agree. In high school I was so amazed that I didn't really know any one with cancer and was very thankful. Since then I've lost a friend, a great uncle, grandmother, and my god son is a survivor of neuroblastoma and some good friends' mom is a 2 time breast cancer survivor...I should learn to bite my tongue!! I'm glad there's ways I can silently support when words aren't enough.
