Hey Cancer, Remember Me?
You gave me an 80 percent chance to live. You made me suffer and made my friends and family suffer too. But, you made us stronger, smarter and more determined people. You also made us all believers in miricles. Remember us cancer...you made us what we are today...

paraphrased and adapted from Lance Armstrong's quote by Ellen Della Penna for my son, Griffin---CANCER SURVIVOR 5/30/2007


"Yellow wakes me up in the morning. Yellow gets me on the bike everyday. Yellow has taught me the true meaning of sacrifice. Yellow makes me endure suffering. Yellow is the reason I'm here." Lance Armstrong

Wear Yellow to remember~~~

Much time has passed since posting a journal entry, and so much has happened...Life is Good, God is great and we have all been blessed with a miracle of continued remission and good health. Now 3 1/2 years post-chemo remission, Griffin continues to amaze us with his strength and teaches us daily about what is truly important in life.
