RELAY FOR LIFE, MMB PLEASE READ!!!
As many of you know; as was posted, the Bedford MI RELAY FOR LIFE was held yesterday from 9 am to this morning til 9 am; OUR team did a KENTUCKY DERBY theme, in honor of Mary and Dennis, since they could not be at the DERBY this year.
I will be posting photos of the Luminaries my family and my girlfriends made in HONOR of MARY, ONCE THEY ARE ALL DEVELOPED.
The Relay for those who don't know is an event held in many communites in May and June and it is a 24 hour event, to raise money for cancer research, the whole goal is to fund research for a CURE to this horrible disease.
AS of this morning BEDFORD rasised 114k, HOWEVER WE ARE ACCEPTING DONATIONS THRU THE NEXT FEW WEEKS..... AND ALL OF THE MONEY 100% WILL GO TO RESEARCH FOR A CURE.
MARY HAD EVERY INTENTION TO BE THERE AND DO A LAP ON THE TRACK WITH US, AS ONE OF THE SURVIVORS, SHE IS BUSY BEING A SURVIVOR AND WAS NOT ABLE TO BE THERE, BUT SEEING ALL THE PURPLE SHIRTS ON THE TRACK, "HAD IT, FOUGHT IT, WON IT" REMINDED ME OF WHAT MARY AND DENNIS ARE DOING SO FAR AWAY FROM HOME!!
MY DAUGHTER WHO CONSIDERS MARY HER AUNT, DONATED 10 INCHES OF HER HAIR YESTERDAY TO LOCKS OF LOVE FOR CHILDREN WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED CHEMO AND HAVE LOST THEIR HAIR, THE CANCER LOCKS OF LOVE ARE OF NO CHARGE TO THESE CHILDREN, I AM SO PROUD OF HER AND I KNOW MARY WILL BE TOO, MY SON, MARY AND DENNIS GODSON WHO IS NOW 5 WAS AS QUIET AS A MOUSE AS HE WALKED 1/2 MILE DURING THE SILENT LUMINARIA LAP AND HE PRAYED FOR HIS AUNT MARY AND THOUGHT ABOUT HER A GREAT DEAL, HE LOVES HER AND MISSES HER DEARLY.
UNFORTUNATELY, NOT ONE OF PERSON ON THIS BLOGGER, OR OFF THAT KNOW MARY AND DENNIS..... TOOK ME UP ON MY OFFER TO MAKE A DONATION FOR THE CURE IN MARY'S HONOR, OR TO VOLUNTEER AN HOUR OF TIME TO WALK FOR HER OR TO DONATE $10 TO MAKE A LUMINARY IN HER HONOR THAT WE LIT AND LINED THE TRACK WITH THOUSANDS OF LAST NIGHT IN HONOR OF EVERYONES LOVED ONES AND THOSE LOST TO THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE.
IT IS NOT TOO LATE..... YOU CAN STILL GET INVOLVED IN YOUR CHAPTER OF THE RELAY FOR LIFE, THERE IS ONE IN MOST EVERY COMMUNITY AND WE ARE GOING TO ACCEPT DONATIONS THRU THE END OF JUNE FOR OURS...... OUR CHAPTER HELPED MONROE WITH 90K OF THE 500K THAT PUT THEM IN THE TOP 10 COLLECTING RELAYS ACROSS AMERICA.....

SHE CRIED WHEN SHE READ THE POSTING I ORIGINALLY PUT OUT THERE FOR HELP IN HER HONOR AND SHE HERSELF WANTED TO BE THERE...........................SOMEDAY THERE WILL BE A CURE, MARY IS A FIGHTER BETWEEN HER FIGHTING ABILITIES AND ALL OF THE PRAYERS AND LOVE SHE RECEIVES EVERY DAY, SHE HAS A TON OF SUPPORT EMOTIONALLY BUT GOD AND MARY HAVE ALOT TO DO WITH HER HEALING AND HER BATTLE.......
WHY SHOULD MARY OR ANYONE HAVE TO GO THRU THIS HORRIBLE TIME? IF WE ALL PULL TOGETHER, AND I MEAN ALL..... AND DONATE WHAT LITTLE WE CAN, OR GIVE UP SOME OF THAT TIME THAT WE TAKE FOR GRANTED TO HELP FIND THAT CURE..............SO MUCH PAIN AND HEARTACHE CAN BE SAVED!
I HAVE LEARNED THRU MMB AND THE RELAY, THAT I DON'T KNOW OR HAVE NOT SPOKEN TO ONE SINGLE PERSON THAT IN SOME WAY HAS BEEN DEVESTATED BY THIS AWFUL THING THEY CALL CANCER.......

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GET INVOLVED IN MINE, START YOUR OWN, GET INVOLVED IN YOUR COMMUNITY, IF YOU CANNOT START YOUR OWN AS IT TAKES A TONNNNN OF TIME AND A HUGE COMMITMENT TO CHAIR A TEAM, THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF TEAMS, AND EVERY ONE OF THEM WELCOME VOLUNTEERS, THERE ARE NO STRANGERS AT THIS EVENT, MAYBE PEOPLE YOU DON'T KNOW OR RECOGNIZE BUT THERE ARE NOOOOO STRANGERS.
