I'd love it if you could add Mary S. to your list. She's my mom's oldest friend and has been a 2nd mom to me and my brother over the years.

thanks!

You made me cry this morning. I love you to pieces. I donated already to your walk, but I'm going to scrape up some more in honor of Amy's mom. I used to be friends with her and her mom back before I left ... and we never reconnected and I think about both of them often. Please give them both my love and let them know I'm praying.

Thank you for doing all you do. And I do fight like a girl too.

:-)

oh, sweetie! I'm sorry I made you cry. Wish I could be there to hug you. I love you, too.

I'm so grateful to you and all my friends who have already donated, or sent good wishes, and who I know are with me in spirit. I don't want you to feel obligated to give more!

Fighting like a girl,

xoxo

I knew I forgot something. I'll send a donation your way.

I've have family members fighting like a girl right now.
