I am participating in Light the Night for the first time in honor of everyone that IS, HAS or WILL fight the battle of a blood cancer. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) funds lifesaving research that has contributed to major advances in the treatment of blood cancers and treatments for other types of cancer, such as chemotherapy and stem cell transplants. New targeted therapies that kill cancer cells without harming normal tissue are providing drugs and procedures that are improving quality of life.
Please make a donation to support my participation in the Light The Night Walk and help save lives. I would love for YOU to walk with us or simply pray for our team!
Thank you in advance for any support you provide!
Debbie :)
Smile, God Loves You!
