For a Good Cause... Relay for Life... Mathews


While I have been a bit of a slacker lately when it comes to blog posting, today it is for a good cause. Well actually "causes" here are a few of them.

1. Cause if I don't share this with you it will be a tragedy.
2. Cause I had to witness this first hand and I am now traumatized.
3. Cause it really was for a good cause.
4. Cause cancer just plain sucks.
5. Cause I would say it is safe to say that all of us have lost a loved one to this disease in our life.
6. Cause I have friends and family would are fighting as I type this to beat this ugly thing.
7. Cause I am trying to find a team to join to be part of this thing.. better late than never RIGHT?


Let's talk about number 7 for a moment. While my family to some degree has a team in place they are full so I have reached out to a friend to see if they need any help on their team, so I will just go from there, I am sure there is a team somewhere who is in need of someone to walk around the track and raise a dime or two to beat this thing.

Anyhooooo having said that if you want to help support myself and whatever team I happen to land on squash this thing just let me know there are a lot of ways to contact me.

And seriously if I don't get on a team.. why can't I start my own I have enough sister people, and friends, blisters and relatives that we can make it work some how.. I think.

And without further ado... your traumatization for the day...

  4. Amazing ... as a cancer survivor I applaud every effort anyone makes ... those guys deserve a lot of praise for prancing on stage to help raise money for this most horrendous disease .. so who won? How much did they raise?
