Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's evening walk and fundraising event. It is the nation's night to pay tribute and bring hope to thousands of people battling blood cancers and to commemorate loved ones lost, like my mother, Sheila Veloza
My mother lost her 6 month battle with Leukemia at the young age of 46, on 3/18/08. To Read More About My Mother's Story, Go HERE.

Your donation will help the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) to fund lifesaving cancer research that has contributed to major advances in the treatment of blood cancers and many other types of cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and stem cell transplants, that have helped patients live better, longer lives. New targeted therapies that kill cancer cells without harming normal tissue are providing drugs and procedures that are improving the quality of life.
