What are you doing on Saturday?


As regular readers know, Lincoln's buddy, Jack Bailey, has leukemia. He, and his amazing family, have been fighting cancer since January 2009.   
Jack is doing well in remission, although a fever of 102 last week resulted in a six-day hospital stay.  His dangerously low blood cell counts resulted in a slew of antibiotics and a blood transfusion.   

Jack is in the loving and capable care of The Valerie Center at Saint Barnabas.  And we're looking forward to being part of The Valerie Fund Walk-a-Thon this coming weekend to raise awareness, funds, and hope...because, quite frankly, cancer sucks.  But it sucks a little less when you are in such good hands.

Will you join Team Jack Jack? If you donate through the "Register to Walk" button and select Team Jack Jack, I'll pick up and mail you the 2010 Valerie Fund walk-a-thon T-shirt!

  1. Carey, I gave a donation but do not want a T-shirt. In fact, I didn't see any place that mentioned T-shirt. If they give me one anyway, please keep it. Have a good walk!!

  2. Thanks AK!! If you click Register to Walk you should be prompted to select a t-shirt size as part of the registation process. The forecast for Saturday looks good...much better than the torrential downpour we walked in last year!
