Hello all !!
I want to share some good news with you ...1st the bad though . My dentist checked my lesion today and he also used the velscope and it seems as though I will be having another biopsy. But I am OK..Cus I had a really good day otherwise !!!
OK I know I mentioned that I wanted to get a booth at the county fair to promote Oral cancer awareness. SO I called today and it is $260 for a week...That is inside electricty and everything ..so I was going to do it. Then I got in touch with an organization called "Reality Check" ( the are against tobacco companies) and Guess what .They have a large booth and would love to have me and all my ideas JOIN THEM !!!!!
Works for me in alot of ways
1. I wont have to man it for 12-13 hours a day alone ..( They said if I cant they will handle it)
2. They are well know ( and sponsoring lazer tag !!)
3. NO COST TO ME !
4. They have offered to pay for my whole family to attend fair every day if I want !! ( no gonna happen ..LOL )
SO I AM EXCITED !!! I am working on trying to get dentist to do free oral cancer screenings ( Reality Check said use their name too !) And I am trying to get a few things Donated to raffle of and proceeds with be sent to OCF , as well as
donation Jar ! I am going to contact Biotene and see if they would like to have some sample there. Brian is sending me more brochures, I am checkin into gettin those bracelets. I make lolipops and thought about writting somthing like " Suck on these and save your life ...tobacco free !! " We are seeing if we can get some kind of awareness shirts Donated to sell or give out to the 1st however many people.
I want to do a display board of important facts !! So I need you all to let me know the ones you think we should get out there !!!
And last but not least.. I would love to put a face to this disease. If anyone would like to send a photo & story ..or even just one or the other ..I want to make a display of that as well !!!
This thing is going to last for 7 days ......Some one is going to see this and it is going to make a difference...that is how I am making it through today !!!
All other ideas are sooooo welcome !!!! you can post them .pm them email them ..call me whatever !!! And I havent forgot the reunion I am working on that too !!!!
