Children's cancer. Two very scary words when used together. Kids who have Down syndrome are more likely to get Leukemia, though they tend to respond better with higher success rates and lower relapses. We usually refer to it as the "L" word. Web MD writes about why this occurs in very non-people first language.
Tonight we had burgers for Sincess Kennedy who is cured and all the kids facing this terrible disease. We colored a chili pepper in honor of my sweet cousin Alyssa "Sissy" who at age 4 won her ultimate battle with cancer and is in Heaven.
I hate cancer.
I hate cancer.

Cancer does suck! That was nice of you to make a picture in honer of Sissy. Makes me cry, cry for all the children/adults of the world with cancer. Later on this month(October is very busy for me/us), we will be going for a fundraiser dinner for Jasons boss'es daughter to help raise $ for her treatment of the L word. I will also be thinking of Sis, and our other loved ones who have had cancer, but have kicked its but. (G-ma Pat(though she has already gone home),and Janet..) Well moving up to the next post as I am getting cought up. Liz
