My nephew Patrick and his family will be taking part in this year's Light the Night Walk for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.This is a national event with similar walks being staged all over the country, including here in Colonie on Sept. 30. Patrick will be the "Honored Patient Hero" at the Oct. 8 walk in Lexington, KY.
I've posted a link to his family's fundraising page. They're hoping to raise $1,000. Please do whatever you can to help them out!
UPDATE: I just received an e-mail from my sister, Mary Ellen. She tells me they attended the Light the Night kickoff event last night are now setting their goal at $20,000!
They will need all the help they can get. So please donate!
