It has been a while since I have blogged. I have been busy with my husband having Kidney Cancer, he had a kidney removed in December 2010, and in April his cancer came back with a vengeance. This has given way to my thoughts and hopes for my blog, to turn to what my passion is, to help those in need, regardless of the circumstances that bring them to me.
My non-profit turned one in July! With that I have been busy contacting hospitals, agencies, and now, with a renewed hope. WE have discovered that there is a need for support groups in our area for people with cancer, especially kidney cancer. With this, we will be expanding what we do in looking for a place that will allow us to meet and give hope to those who feel alone and isolated at this time in their lives. As a family member reaching out for hope and help, we have our own issues to deal with. I need to be strong for Lee and the other family members, but, I also need to look at my own health and well-being. It is with this new challenge, we are looking to expand and help not only heal our family, but the needs of others.
We are starting small, with a humanitarian effort that will bring love and warmth to those in need, but comfort from knowing that they are NOT alone. I have begun a quest to make 100 caps for people with cancer, BUT, I feel that is a small goal, I also want to have 100 burial blankets for the infants that do not live. We need to look forward to the help and hope we can give.
Please join me in this effort.
Sincerely.. P
