Meet my little buddy, Dylan – we are celebrating our Survivors’ Lap around the track at Relay for Life. After a year-long grueling course of treatment for Ewing’s Sarcoma Dylan’s parents yesterday received the results of follow-up tests and Dylan is officially CANCER FREE!
Walking the Survivors’ Lap today was a wonderful experience and I am so glad that I participated in the Relay this year. With contributions from family and friends I was able to add $856 to our team’s total of more than $11,000. Tonight at the Luminary Ceremony it was announced that as of noon today the event’s contributions had totaled 1.6 million dollars!
What an honor it was to be a part of today's event - the first lap was a sea of purple and I was one of those survivors in a purple t-shirt.
