Cancer is such a scary word,
no matter how it's spoken.
peace of mind taken for granted,
can be crushed and forever broken.
But together we could fight this!
It's an enemy from within us,
striking oh so randomly,
tomorrow it could be you,
for yesterday it was me.
So together we should fight this!
While science is advancing,
my heroes still are dying,
some treatments just aren't working,
but still we'll keep on trying
And together we will fight this!
Research is the magic word,
it's what we want to see,
nothing less than a cancer cure,
would mean so much to me.
For together we have fought this!
It'll take support from everyone,
to really see this through,
so peace of mind for all of us,
can start off fresh and new.
And together we will win!

In 2008, our Dad was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. In March of 2009, we lost a member of our extended family, Sarah Peyton to the same cancer. This is a very devastating disease. We are doing everything we can to increase the awareness and advocate for a cure. On June 6, 2009 we will be participating in the Hospital Hill Run in Kansas City to raise money for Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. Please join us in our efforts with your prayers, support and/or a donation.
Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to support our efforts!
