Brian ,
I absolutley LOVE the idea of a book. Peoples stories and photos.. I really really do . And I am not as computer Savy as I like to pretend >>hahaha, You probably all can tell that with all my typos. BUT I would love to do a SLide show with power point or somthing and MY daughter will help me and MY Aunt does photos and music on cd's so I would love to do somthing like that as well, as a Gift for all in attendence and anyone who wants to contribute photos.stories, prayers, poems ,I would love to have them all to make somthing ..Even songs that mean somthing to them .They can email me or private message me . For all that want to submitt photos , stories or anything and cant make it , I would love to send to them a copy as well ! Even if for some reason this doesnt work ( the reunion) then I still would love to work on this CD Idea.
I am not kidding when I tell you ..that is it is all of YOU , who got me through it . Yes I have a family and many friends. Yet they aren't always as comapssionate and understanding as all of you . ANd you all arent afraid to put me in my place if I am being over the top either, yet you hold me in your hearts when I need you the most . YOU are my strength ..or atleast the people that remind me to reach down and grab it and to not lose sight of this as overwhelmimg and dark as it can get ..there is a light always a light. YOu all have such a part of my heart.
I am the type of person who wants to be there and do for others..It makes me who I am and It makes me Happy . I need to learn to do for me when need be. But right now this is keeping me going with a big smile on my face as new ideas and messages come.
I want to make a difference in this . I want people to know what this disease is ...I want the awareness of this to be as great as that of Breast cancer. I want people to know who I am but more I want people to know who WE are and what we have been through and how we have fought and continue fighting for all those who may someday face this.
Brian ..and Minnie .. I would love to see that book.
