You have a great trip! We need a way to send a special holiday card to all on this forum. Just think on one big card, no a HUGE one! It would have to be to get everyone's signature on it! One that would hold a cyber hug from all of us survivors out there to each one touched by cancer! A toast for a cure in 2005! Love, Kris
