TOMORROW (today now) I will be participating in the Cancer Society's RELAY FOR LIFE.

Is there anyone here who's life hasn't been touched, in some way, by Cancer? Anyone?

Thought so.

I'm walking in memory of my Mom (Mugs) who passed away in January after a 7 year battle (and believe me, it was a battle) with Cancer and in honour of my Dad (Bill) who just this past Sunday had a Cancer filled Kidney removed (he's doing great, he's home and driving me nuts).

Our team is called REMEMBERING MUGS, in honour of my Mom Margo (Mugs).

You can check out our website.

You can help us in a couple of ways:

1) you can pledge me on-line if you wish... here's the link; and/or

2) You can also purchase a luminary in memorial or in honour of a loved one, they're $5 each. What's a luminary? It's a candle in a paper bag that lines the relay lanes at night, lighting our way =) If you wish to purchase one, here's the link.

This doesn't go towards my pledges or my team's total, but they are really cool. If you do purchase one, let me know and I'll take a picture of it for you! We're the BURLINGTON location.

Email is callmedeb(at)gmail(dot)com

3) Hug your Mom.

Thank you all for your support now and over the years. I really do appreciate it.

Want to be part of a community that takes up the fight? Help me support the fight against cancer by pledging me for my participation in the Cancer Society Relay For Life. The Cancer Society Relay For Life is an overnight non-competitive relay that celebrates cancer survivors and pays tribute to the lives of loved ones. It involves teams of 10 people who take turns walking, running or strolling around a track to raise money to support the work of the Cancer Society.

It's a night of fun, friendship and fund-raising to beat cancer.

Funds raised through Relay For Life make a difference. They help the Cancer Society fund the most promising research projects in the country, provide information services and support programs in the community and advocate for public policies that prevent cancer and help those living with it.

Help me support the fight against cancer by pledging me for my participation in the Cancer Society Relay For Life.

Thanks,

Deborah Beckers
