A piece in the puzzle


I really hesitated before putting this on LJ, but part of the undertaking of the International Heroes of Hope program is getting the message out ... so here it is.  This is me.

0_o I, for one, am glad ur winning this fight. How, exactly, does one join the fight though?

Thank you, poppet - you're sweet! ♥ As for joining the fight ... you can always donate to your local Cancer organisation, but its much more fun to take part in a relay or fun run or Girls Night In or something like that to help raise funds for research and assistance. Our local Relay for Life raised just on $70,000 last year (and we're a little rural Tasmanian town!) which went to buy a car to transport people to treatment, along with lots of other help. A large percentage goes to research, too, which is so important. Another way to fight back is just to be self aware and look after yourself with regular screening!!! :)

Oh sorry - that was a bit long winded - LOL!!!

Not long winded at all, hon. One of my male friends actually does Relay for Life with his co-workers so that might be a good place to start. Thx for replying & for sharing. & ooh! Have a song.

Oh you darling girl -- you prompted me listen to this with new ears. I'm totally taking it as my new theme song!!! ♥
