Hi ~

I just met with my oncologist and I have achieved MMR.  I was diagnosed in 11/10 with 17.82% PCR and today it is 0.002%!

Also, my Light the Night team raised almost $7500 for LLS.

This is definitely one of my better weeks in Cancer World!

Congratulations! It's a great feeling isn't it? Your field isn't development is it? What a super fundraiser you are! Thank you for what you are doing for LLS and all of us!

Thanks, everyone.  Pat, I have no experience with fundraising (I am a divorce attorney) but I am blessed with a wonderful group of family and friends who are very supportive.  "Light the Night" was so uplifting.  Picture about 7000 people with illuminated balloons strolling through a wooded area at dusk.  It was spectacular!
