My birthday wish . . .

[Laurie]

Before I blow out 30/16 candles I would like to make a public birthday wish.

I wish my beautiful sister, Lisa, and my mother's best friend (and wonderful family friend) Sue, long out live their diagnosis and time frame for terminal cancer--in Lisa's case breast cancer, in Sue's, lung cancer

I hope Nancy's mom is CURED after her treatments complete.

I hope Shawna's boyfriend, Bob, is CURED after his treatments are complete.

I hope my chingrandma Kim's husband, Bob, is CURED with the treatments he will receive.

I hope we continue as a nation, as a people, to fight for the advancement to treat and CURE cancer.

And I hope, so hope, no one I know will ever be touched by such an insidious disease.

Help me tonight, blow out my candles, by wishing for the same things.

Laurie, that makes me cry! I pray and hope more than anything that your wishes come true. What a selfless and wonderful wish, and Laurie, you are just such a great woman. I look up to you so much. Happy Birthday Girl.

Soo touching Laurie. I am right there wishing with you.

Laurie, believe me, I wish for that every single day. I don't know where a candle is, but as soon as I leave my desk I will grab a lighter and pretend it is a candle. Happy birthday.
