Two more days until our walk.  If you wanted to donate now would be the time.  You will be helping out so many little kids like chase that face a lot of scarey things each day.  Chase has had a very good treatment.  Many are far worse than what he has gone through.  I am reposting the video I made when Chase hit his one year mark in treatment.  We are two years into treatment now so the stats on the video have change, but his past and future have not.  He still went through all this and and still has more to bear.  Help out CureSearch and find a cure for these little kids.  They deserve to grow up and be big kids.......

I have been terrible and keeping my blog up to date.  I feel so much guilt but at the same time I don't.  I have been using the time to spend with my family, but really I should be staying up at night and instead of crawling in bed to watch TV I should update, but I am so behind now that it is just overwhelming.  I will get to it soon I hope.

Anyway, This weekend Sept 29th is our CureSearch walk up in Salt Lake City.  We will be headed up for Chase's treatments at PCMC and then staying for the walk on Saturday.  We are getting really excited.  So this is your last chance.  September is childhood cancer awareness month and what better way to show your support than to donate to an AMAZING  organization like CureSearch.  They fund many children's hospitals and their cancer research all over the country.  Primary Children's is one of these hospitals.  If it weren't for organizations like CureSearch there would be no progression toward a cure for these cute little kids.

Our team this year is so much fun.  We have teamed up with cute little Taleah and her family.  If you don't know Taleah, she was diagnosed a little over a year after Chase was.  She also has ALL and Chase and Taleah are scheduled to finish treatment together in October of 2013.  I think we will celebrate the whole month.  But for now we are going to go to Salt Lake to walk and celebrate all them milestones and huge steps they have made so far.  They are both still fighting this long hard battle and we know how tough they both are.  They are both going to get through this together.  But without the donations and help from CureSearch they wouldn't have even had the chance they both have.  They would have been diagnosed and sent home with some pain medicine to keep them out of pain.  I am soooo thankful for how far the research has brought the current treatment, but it can get better.  It has TONS of room to improve.  We still lose 22% of those diagnosed.  So we still have 22% more to go.  We can do it, with your help.  Every little bit helps.  Head on over to our website even if it is just to see more of these cute pictures of Chase and Taleah.  There is a little video of them over there and it just melts my heart to watch it.  They are so cute!!!

Donate, join our team, become a virtual walker or just look at the cute pictures at www.togetherforacure2012.blogspot.com.  It is a happy video and you will be sorry if you miss out on seeing it!!!
