Hi Candy Girl!

My daughter is doing a walk on the 21st.  She has been active in this cause since she was in college.  We think it's a worthy cause for sure!  Thanks for sharing this with all!

Your Friend,

Lisa

Hi Lisa -- That is awesome that your daughter at her young age is so giving and selfless. Yes, it's a great cause and so many of us know someone that has been either battling with cancer (of any kind) and we really need to have more people like your daughter that give so we can help better our chances of finding the cures!! Kudos to her!!  Like the 'Candi Girl'  you made me smile. Thank you! Hope your daughter is feeling better after her dentist trip and life is getting back to normal for you!! Take care my friend!

Candace, What a lovely post for a much needed charity.  I hope there is a big turnout.  Isn't it wonderful when you see your daughter step up for some worthy cause?  I went into shock last year when my daughter came home with very short hair...she had donated it to Locks of Love.

Carole - Thank you. That is very admirable of your daughter to sacrifice something so sacred for a woman for another. A great sign of character! Thank you for sharing.

George - I think we agree on many levels. Karen George just being one. Thank you for your friendship!! I appreciate you!
