I'm sorry to hear about your mom. Good Luck! I lost my mother in law and my best friend to cancer so I am all for them finding a cure for cancer. I'll donate to your cause. Sorry I can't join your walking..am already training for Cincy marathon and have more out of state trips in April.

Thank you so much Faith! It's almost been a year since I've seen you. Will you be at the 5k Smaller Indiana party next Thursday at the Rathskellar?

Ya know what... I'm starting to see a theme here.

You and I met Cinco de Mayo-5/5

I'm trying to raise $5,000 for the Komen 5k walk/run

Smaller Indiana is celebrating 5k members.

I'm thinking that I know my lucky numbers! :)

Nicki

You may want to check your link because when I click on the tinyurl link, it led me to Les Balcons Du Savoy in Chamonix Mont Blanc with hotel info and price! Imagine my shock and surprise...

Let me know what you find out!
Thanks
Faith

Oh wow! I left off the "n" at the end of the URL. I guess it helps when you have the entire thing, huh? Thanks for bringing that to my attention!

I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom. I know it's a difficult battle, but it is a battle that can be won.

THANK YOU, John!!!! You were my first donor! I am so confident that they are close to finding the cure. I felt like it was just a routine Dr. appointment, the way her procedures were handled. We're almost there!!

Nicki,
Good luck with this. One of my college friends lost his mother to this and today they supply branded pink ribbon merchandise to all of the affiliates across the country from right here in Indianapolis, including being present at many races. www.pinkribbonclassics.com
They are neat people.
I'll get on the bandwagon.

Thanks for sharing that site, Jeff! I noticed this link on the Komen Indy site, and it's nice to know that they are a friend of a fellow Smoosier!
