June 10, 2006: Brief Report from the Relay
This is a very brief report of the good news from the Relay for Life. Stacey’s Sister, Son, and Stepfather, thanks to your humbling generosity, have raised a great big pile of money for cancer research, to wit:
Stacey’s Sister: 550.00
Stacey’s Stepfather: 375.00
V-Squad Total: 1707.00 (I want to know who donated seven dollars, because that’s just cool)
Stacey’s Son: 300.00
X-Men Total: 1980.00
So that’s a grand total of 3687.00 toward a cure thank you very much! I would also like to point out that Mr. Lyle’s team did, in fact, trounce.
More detailed report of the event in the next few days — it was extraordinary in many ways.
Stacey is feeling surprisingly well as she bounces back from chemo treatment #2. As a matter of fact, she said that she feels better now than she did before chemo treatment #1 (owing to decreased pain and swelling.) In less lovely news, her hair continues to disappear in ways known only to herself– in the actual event, it has been easier to keep the process private. Tonight she was cheerful and goofing with Ruby, if a bit creaky in the hip (this from excessive lounging.)
