So, it's been a while since I've posted and everything is much of the same. Loving my job, working hard at completing my Bachelor's degree in Nursing (July...I can see the light!) and of course, spending time with Kevin! Kevin is doing well and is about to start another flip, this one to be the best yet, a beautiful Victorian which is actually a historical home!! It should be good!
So, everyone knows I have a huge heart for Hematology/Oncology and also the Bone Marrow Trasplant kids. I met and got very close to a few families when I worked there, most of which had children who passed away from a terrible disease called HLH. I've decided to "Hike for A Cure" in September. This involved hiking Yosemite National Park's "Half Dome". This isn't your average hike....it's a 20 mile hike, 8842 feet elevation and all together a very tough hike. I will be raising money to benefit HLH and the help fund the cure. I am hoping to hike on Matthew & Andrew Akin's Team....two brothers who lost their battles whom I had the pleasure to know and take care of. (Meet them and their family at their wonderful website at www.matthewandandrew.org)
My good friend Amie has faithly decided to hike with me! I'm very excited and am starting to train now for it even though it isn't until September! More to come on this awesome opportunity!
