Hi Everyone!
 
It's been a year already and again we are walking in honor of our mom, Christine Behan, in the 9th Annual Champions Fighting Cancer Walk.  Last year, our Hugs for Healing team raised well over $3,000.00 and we have high hopes of surpassing that amount this year.  Thank you to all of our family and friends who supported us, walked with us and prayed for our mom over the past year.  We appreciate all of you so much!

We are so thrilled to let you know that our mom is feeling great!! She completed her 33 treatments of radiation at Brockton Hospital, using the new tomotherapy machine, and is currently on a five-year preventative plan.  This past Christmas, Mom and Paul treated and took all 14 of us to Disney and Naples, Fl.  Talk about the Griswald's on vacation!  We had a blast and are already discussing what our next adventure will be...

Last year, Mom, along with 6 grandchildren and 40 of our family and friends, walked this scenic,  4.3 mile walk.  We had a great time and are looking forward to walking again this year. Thank you for again supporting our team and this  cause.  Your generous donation is very much appreciated.  God Bless You!


Kristen, Sean and Michele and our families
