WE WENT TO OUR LOCAL RELAY FOR LIFE CELEBRATION THIS EVENING. RELAY FOR LIFE IS THE ORGANIZTION THAT COMES TOGETHER TO RAISE MONEY FOR CANCER AWARENESS. THE LUMINARIES THAT ARE PURCHASED ARE LIT AT DUSK. I LOST MY FATHER TO PROSTATE CANCER AND MY HUSBAND LOST HIS MOTHER TO OVARIAN CANCER. RACHEL ENJOYED BEING AROUND THE COMMUNITY AND TALKING TO PEOPLE SHE DOESN'T SEE ALL THE TIME. SHE RAN INTO PAST TEACHERS, FRIENDS, AND CHURCH FAMILY MEMBERS. I WAS JUST SO PROUD AS RACHEL WALKED HALF WAY AROUND THE TRACK WITH HER CANE IN MEMORY OF HER GRANDPA TED AND HER GRANDMA LUCILLE. AS I LOOKED AT THE HUNDREDS OF LUMINARIES THAT WERE DEDICATED TO THE FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS THAT LOST THEIR BATTLE WITH CANCER, I FELT VERY FORTUNATE. I PRAY FOR ALL OF YOU THAT ARE TOUCHED BY CANCER. THIS IS ANOTHER DISEASE THAT AWARENESS MUST BE MADE POSSIBLE.
