Welcome to my Light The Night Walk Team homepage.
As we get closer to the completion of Ashley's treatment in December I am more than thankful for the research and dedication it takes to have a cure for such a horrible thing. Ashley has been lucky that the treatment works with her body and will hopefully keep her cancer free forever.
We have met many families throughout our journey battling this same disease and were extremely saddened by the loss of Siona Shah (age 6) on January 1st 2011. Our hearts ache for her family who are trying to go on with their lives with out her. We love you Reshma, Nigam and Sohil (and entire family)!
Please take a minute to give any amount you can towards LLS and end the pain of the patients struggling through chemo and/or radiation and also for the families struggling to get through it all. Most importantly try to donate so that families like the Shah's never have to say goodbye to their children.
Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's annual fundraising walk to pay tribute and bring hope to people battling cancer. Hundreds of thousands of participants raise funds for lifesaving research and patient services.
For more than 60 years, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) has been solely focused on people with blood cancers. Presently, we have more than $250 million committed to research across the United States and in ten other countries. Every dollar is provided by concerned donors. We invest in the best, outcome based science:
And LLS funded advances are helping patients beyond those for whom they were originally developed, including people with solid tumors and auto-immune diseases. In the past decade, nearly 50% (19 put of 39) of the cancer drugs approved by the FDA were approved as treatments for blood cancer patients. Twelve are already approved for people beyond those for whom they were first developed. With your help, we are saving lives.
Please join our team's effort today by registering to walk or by making a donation. Your participation in the Light The Night Walk will help save lives. Be sure to check our team Web site frequently to see our progress, and thanks for your support!
