I am finally able to go to my 1st Realy for Life 5-18-2007. I was diagnosed with rectal cancer in late Oct. 2004 and every year since have had just had surgery or was recovering from it. So this is a BIG day for me. I will have my husband and 4 children by my side when I walk the Survivor walk. I am planning on walking the whole lap, but not sure if I will be able to.

It is a big day indeed, I proudly walked the survivor lap last year. It was very emotional---I cried the entire lap. My husband and 3 children were there also. It made my husband cry too.
It has been 4 years since my rectal cancer diagnosis. I can't believe how far I have come.

The Relay for Life is awesome! I walked my first one with my semi-colon friends by my side: Scouty, Nanuk, jerseysue, Suzannchilli, Kanort, Lisa Rose, Kangatoo and our supporters, Andy, Jen, Sue (bsrules), Linda (buttrcup). What a wonderful and memorable time we had. So emotional for us all, survivors and caregivers alike.
Enjoy your walk...I have a feeling you will make the whole lap!
