My Fundraising Page Dedicated to Heather Coombe

Welcome to my Light The Night Walk homepage.


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.


This year I will be walking in Honor of Heather Coombe. You can learn more about Heather at http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/heathercoombe


I will also be walking for all of my Blake Shelton friends (BSers) as well.


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. These treatments 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 quality of life.

  • A donation of $25 provides patients and their loved ones with FREE booklets that contain up-to-date information on their disease and help them make informed decisions about their treatment options.
  • A donation of $50 makes possible a Family Support group with a trained facilitator where comfort can be found and experiences can be shared among patients and family members.
  • A donation of $100 helps supply laboratory researchers with supplies and materials critical to carrying out their search for cures.
  • A donation of $1,000 makes possible one- on-one conversations with health care specialists who provide patients with information about their disease, treatment options, and helps prepare them with questions for their health care team.

Please make a donation to support my participation in the Light The Night Walk and help save lives. Be sure to check my Web site frequently to see my progress, and thanks for your support!

    "Heather is a special young lady, whom I will never forget. She loved country music, who I found thru Josh Turner's music in 2004, as we were both members of his original fanclub. She was maybe only 16 y/o in 2004, but she's always been much wiser than her age. She grew up to become a beautiful, strong, & sweet woman. Heather survived Leukemia/Lymphoma in 2008. She just turned 21 in December of 2008, and also became an Aunt. However, she became very ill and ended up back in the hospital with pneumonia, influenza A, complicated by ARDs which led to her being on a ventilator in March. As Alan Jackson sings, I like to think that, She flew up to Heaven on the wings of angels, By the clouds and stars and passed where no one sees And she walks with Jesus now. "
