Update 6/18/2008...

Unfortunately my Aunt Kally has lost her fight against the Cancer that had taken over her body. She died peacefully in the early hours of the morning on June 16th, and we will be burying her tomorrow, laying her to rest next to her only brother who passed away ten years earlier. Now her journey's have begun with the Lord, and may her life in heaven be as glorious as promised to be.

I have setup a Trust Account at Wachovia Bank in the name of her son, my 19 year old cousin who is her sole survivor for donations if anyone is interested in partaking in that, feel free to PM or call me.

God rest her soul, and look out for the safety and well-being of her son.

Sorry for your loss man.

My father in law was just diagnosed with colon cancer yesterday.

Interesting note: One of the old martial arts masters in the system I practice and teach felt that everyone was born with cancer in their bodies. He felt that the way to combat it was to excersize and with sunlight. Both in moderation. IDK....Too much of anything seems to cause cancer.

It affects my life everyday. I am a nurse for the only not for profit hospice organization in Polk county. I got into after I was diagnosed back in 2005 with melanoma. I have since beat it. I lost my grandparents on my dads side of the family to lung cancer back in 1990 and 2000.

When I was in Nursing school I got involved with the ACS Relay for life and have been a team captain for the last eight RFL in Haines City, leading a team from my church in finding a cure. The easiest way to put it, having goe through cancer is that it SUCKS!

I commend you on what you are doing and if anyone has any questions or need help with anything let me know.

Thanks guys. I laid my aunt to rest this afternoon, and was honored to be a pall bearer (sp?). Tough times emotionally for all involved.

God speed to those who have loved ones with Cancer and/or have been effected by it in any way, shape, or form.
