I feel very badly because I meant to do this entry a while ago. The Light the Night Walk was October 7th and it was a beautiful night. Team Jackiepie raised $7,000 for blood cancer research! I was lucky to be surrounded by even more family and friends this year. I am blessed.
The staff of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society did a wonderful job with this event. It was both fun and moving. Supporters carry red balloons and survivors carry white ones. I was even given a special shirt with survivor printed on back which I wore with pride. Because I am in the "bright lights club" (for those who raise over $1,000) I had access to a special tent with extra goodies. One of the perks was that a man gave me a massage which was very nice! All in all, it was a happy evening and a great way of celebrating being one year post treatment.
