Race for the Cure - Wrap-up
 

Hey there! So sorry it's taken me a while to send my race wrap-up!

Anyway, I want to thank all of you who joined the team and/or
contributed. We missed those of you who weren't able to be there for
the race! It was a warm, muggy morning, but we still had lots of fun,
as we always do! Owen, our 6 year old, ran the race (five kilometers)
in 37 minutes!!!! Can you believe it?! Next year, our whole family
will run it!

Also, I have seen so many of our shirts around! Lot's of people have
commented on how great they look. I understand, too, that the kids are
having lots of fun finding their names on the back! I'm so glad they
seem to be well-liked.

Now...we are kicking around a name change for next year. Also, I'm
really looking for help on t-shirt designs for next year, so keep that
in mind!!! And I would like to challenge each team member (kids, too)
to find one person to join our team with you! We had 144 team members
this year, which is still unbelievable to me! You guys are so
wonderfully supportive! I know you all have your own causes, but you
sure are supportive of mine, nonetheless. We raised $6,525 (ish)! That
is also just unbelievable. I set our goal lower this year, but you
guys blew that $5,000 goal out of the water.

You'll be hearing from me about next year's race right after Christmas
(if I'm on my game!).....If you have t-shirt ideas (colors/designs),
please let me know! Thanks again, so much! Just can't say it enough!!!

With love and deep appreciation--

Renee

I have never meet Renee, I am not related to her in any manner, but she
makes me feel proud of what one person can do when they set their mind
to it.

You must be bursting at the seams with pride for what your daughter has
accomplished. Talk about making lemon-aid when life give you some lemons.

I wonder what the reaction will be to my T-shirt design.

Hey, John, I saw a bumper sticker this morning that made me think of
you and your daughter. It was the usual pink ribbon that I know you've
seen a million times because of your involvement, but the caption was
the great part. It simply said "Save the Ta-Tas"!

Beats saving whales I'll tell you what.

While strictly a political viewpoint, the one I'll always remember was
back in the early '70s - "Nuke The Whales - And Jane Fonda".

That was funny.

I have never meet Renee, I am not related to her in any manner, but she
makes me feel proud of what one person can do when they set their mind
to it.

You must be bursting at the seams with pride for what your daughter has
accomplished. Talk about making lemon-aid when life give you some lemons.

She is totally astounding. I'm continuously astonished at her ability
to take the bad and make something of it.

I don't know if I mentioned - One of the implants became swollen from,
they thought, scar tissue.. They operated a couple weeks ago to
determine the problem. She'd had a low grade infection that had
apparently been there for a couple months. They had to remove that
breast. Because they were worried, they recommended that both breasts
be removed. My SIL agreed to that.

When Renee woke up from surgery, expecting the scar tissue to be gone
and able to wear the bikini she'd bought, she found both breasts gone.

That was the week right before the race.

She's unreal. And I'm very proud of her.
