Re: Tip Toe (her2supports) mascot
Yes, please start the adventure for Tiptoe II. Her adventures are lots of fun, especially when you might be sidelined by chemo, radiation or surgery. I had invited Tiptoe to come to Oregon back in about 2007. Another friend and I from the site were finally going to meet in person at the state Capitol. We thought the Tipster might want to talk to a few of the legislators. Our plans fell apart when my friends cancer returned and she could not leave the house. We never were able to meet in person and then she passed away.
