Wave

I usually leave the house on Sunday mornings by 9:15 AM. At the end of my street, I always meet an older man, standing on the side of the road, waiting for his ride to church. He always is in a suit and stands very dignified while he waits.

The first few weeks, I really didn't pay attention to the pattern. My head is full of what I am going to teach in Sunday School and trying to make sense of the running list in my head.

But one Sunday, I waved. I think he was so surprised, he just stared after my car as I headed up the road. And then I waved the next Sunday, and the next. And then he started to wave back.

Now my Sunday morning isn't complete unless we wave.

Hope

Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible.

Celebrate. Remember. Fight Back.

My goal is to raise enough money to cover one round of Zofran (nausea drug) for Mom. ($1700).

My wish would be to raise enough to cover one round of Zofran and a wig. [Remember how much better Mom felt after she bought this.] A wig let her pretend everything was okay when she looked in the mirror. I think we paid about $200 for this after everything was said and done. (Wig Conditioner, Wig Head, Wig Shampoo, Some pantyhose looking thing to put over her head.). Mom's wig ended up at the ACS in Raleigh.

I am still trying to think of fund raising ideas. If you think of any, please drop me an email. On the web site, you can also buy luminaries for this Relay if you are interested.

Our Relay for Life starts May 1 in Holly Springs at Womble Park. The details are still being worked out.
