Welcome to Ali's site! She was diagnosed with ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia)pre B cell on August 26, 2002, when she was 15 years old. She followed POG 9905B, taking daily chemotherapy with numerous treatments and setbacks. On Easter Sunday 2005, Ali took her last oral chemotherapy. On May 1, 2005 we celebrated ALi's 18th Birthday, Off Treatment and upcoming high school Graduation!! On June 5th, Ali's sister Lex and I rode 100 miles around Lake Tahoe on a TNT ride for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society fundraiser in honor of Ali.

On June 4th of 2006, Ali's brother, her dad and I rode 100 miles around Tahoe once more in honor of Ali and in memory of our 6 year old friend Angel Ben

"What does a cow take for cancer?"
"KEMOO!" This was our friends Mark and Gorete's rental car plates when they came to visit. Being a cow lover, I couldn't pass up the photo op of Ali and the KEMOO plates!

Today is Ali's RELAY FOR LIFE at Cal Poly. Ali is the luminaria chairperson...I hope it isn't too hot there as it has been in the 100's here!

Today was also our Hometown Days Parade...

Turns out the clown in the foreground, Don, HAD lymphoma 15 years ago...he was one of the first 100 BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTS done in where he was treated. He lives in NC and comes out yearly to run Bay to Breakers (tomorrow) and clown around in the Hometown Days Parade. Cheers to Don, a SURVIVOR!-

The countdown has begun to our RELAY here on June 21. We are still taking team members and I have paid the team fee so all you need to do is sign up!
All the info is below.

Next Friday, I am hosting the 4th Annual Kindergarten "FUN"draiser for kindergartners at my school. From 5-9 they get to eat dinner, play games, make crafts, use the computers for KID PIX and just be kids. It is a minimum donation of $25, all going to the ACS. The past 3 years I have done this for families whose child is in treatment/transplant for relapse or for my TNT bike ride. It is a fun event just for K's.

ARE YOU READY TO RELAY???

Join us June 21 and 22 for the Belmont/San Carlos Relay for Life at Carlmont High School. This is our 5th year of participation and my 3rd year of Chairing the SURVIVORS. What an honor to be part of such a wonderful organization with an amazing group of people dedicating their time for a worthy cause.


We would LOVE to have you walk with us...last year was our largest TEAM ALI ever. If you cannot make it, and have it in your heart to donate...any amount is welcome....if you've been around here you know my motto- NO AMOUNT IS TOO SMALL! I like to think that the penny found in the parking lot could be the penny that makes the research that finds a cure possible! So here's the link...YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO!
CLICK HERE TO JOIN OR DONATE TO ALI'S TEAM

***Once you get to the Realy site, Click on "DONATE" or "JOIN A TEAM"- If you are joining, simply sign up as a member of an existing team- there is no need to pay the team fee...I have already done that.***

Ali is also working with the RELAY FOR LIFE at Cal Poly. Today she and her roommates are holding a rummage sale to raise funds for their walk. She does not have a link, but if you are in SLO today, go to COSTCO and follow the signs. The entire homeowners association is rummaging so there will be tons of good stuff.
