Oh My Goodness, I said I wasn’t too “IT”! 10/27/07

October 27th, 2007

Well, I really have egg on my face!!!!

I have been checking out the links from the IMF web-site to the blog here and have been thinking, well I guess they aren’t working correctlybecause I know I have written a post later than Sept 27th. I know I have. So I came directly here and logged in and lo and behold, the last thing posted was Sep 27th. I must be losing my mind!!!! Well as I was getting ready to do what I thought I had already done, and click to post, guess what I found, the post from Oct 17th…;-) I must have clicked save instead of publish. Still trying to figure all this stuff out! So please excuse the lateness. And please feel free to laugh with me!!

Well, more news to add, I am pleased to announce I have now lost 36 pounds. WOOHOO!!

My friend Jeannie tells me to think about that many pounds of potatoes. That’s a bunch of taters!!!

As I let you all know in the post I forgot to send out, but just did, the “Click to Donate” button is now working on the IMF web-site for my fundraiser! So get busy clicking!!!;-) to make it easier just click here and this will take you right to my part http://tinyurl.com/22yvxt , pretty cool huh???

I almost have my brochure ready to start sending out and taking around locally to realy get things in high gear on the donations for research. I really wanted to see if I would really lose any weight, again…WOOHOO! So now the the “Losing Weight” is having such great progress~ we need to get the “Gaining Awareness” going as well. Hopefully by the first part of this coming weekI will have it ready and will bring it here, so any of you can send it out as well. If we can get just 1000 people to donate 1.00 per pound and commit for the entire 120 pounds we will have reached the goal of $120,000. for research! ALL FOR RESEARCH! No money from this will be taken for me to make my trip to Africa, no money for any administrative fees, no money from this goes to “Physician Weight Loss Center of Pensacola”, every penny will go towards vital live changing, life saving research for Multiple Myeloma! Nothing would be greater than to find out that with that $120,000. We found “The Cure”! In the grand scheme of things in the Research world, this amount is only a drop in the big ocean of research. But I know it can make a difference. You can make a difference, you can be the miracle!In our life time it would be great to know that when one person hears, ” I have bad news and I have good news and the bad news is you have Multiple Myeloma, but the good news is, we have found a cure” . It takes research, and research takes dollars.

Well I guess you know where my passion is! FINDING A CURE FOR THIS BEAST! HOW ABOUT YOU? WON’T YOU PLEASE JOIN ME IN MY FIGHT? LETS GET GAINING AWARENESS.

Blessings to you all~
