Elder daughter, Renee, of 'Race with Renee' fame, had to undergo
surgery yesterday to remove the breast rebuild implants. One of them

couple months now, but wasn't caught. Now she's back to square one as
far as the breast replacement goes.

**** happens.

She's in a much better state of mind than I am, however, and she still
plans to run on race day.

There is still time to make a donation to the Komen Foundation, and
I'm hoping you'll do so. I will match any donation up to $100 per
individual. But, please don't think that the matching amount limits
the donation!

Please check out her web site...

Sorry to hear that, John, and I hope she is recovering well. I made my
"initial" donation. Did you match that one yet?


No, I haven't looked yet. I'm taking off for a week early tomorrow.
I'll put my $100 in when I get back.

Thanks a lot, Dan. It means a lot to her and will definitely help her
morale!
