Did you stand up?

I hope you did.....I hope you all did for yourselves, your spouses, parents, children, siblings, family and friends. No one should ever have to go through what someone who is diagnosed with cancer does. I have been so very lucky to have caught it early, had exceptional doctors and an incredible network of you all supporting me. Unfortunately not everyone is so lucky.

It is a dream I have that by the time L and B are old enough for this gene they might carry to possibly affect them, it will no longer be an issue. There will be a simple vaccine or procedure and that is it.....nothing more. It's not a very complicated dream but it is one that can only be realized with the medical research and the dedication from all sectors of America to stem this horrible disease.

I hope....that you hope too.
