Tomorrow Christine and I will be inducted into the Strike Out Cancer Hall of Fame. http://www.strikeoutcancer.com/index.jsp The ceremonies will be held before the San Diego Padres / San Francisco Giants game at about 12:30 PM.

The Strike Out Cancer Hall of Fame honors people who embody the spirit of the program by providing unparalleled support, education and hope to people affected by cancer. Ten people who continually work to inspire and motivate others in the cancer community will be inducted at special recognition ceremonies, with the chance to be recognized on-field at Major League Ballparks.

What makes this recognition more important to us is that we were nominated by several members of the HER2 Support Group for this honor. We are both thankful and humbled by this. To have the recognition of your peers is a great honor.

Hopefully we will be able to post some pictures of the ceremony.

Warmest regards and Hugs to all,

Christine and Joe

You deserve not only this recognition, but much, much more. Thanks for all you do.

By the way, my onc said he stopped by the HER2-Support booth at Atlanta. Did you happen to catch Dr. Kochenderfer from Wake Forrest?

The thousands of hours Christine and Joe have spent working on this forum, networking with doctors and drug companies, consoling and advising members of this board can only be imagined!

And the truly awesome thing about them is that there is NO EGO involved on their part - this all comes from the goodness of their hearts.

We do not know the amount of frustration and other behind the scenes glitches they have to deal with. The MERE FACT that they have kept it all going speaks volumes.

May God bless them in every way.

Dear Christine and Joe,

I just knew you two would be chosen! I only wish that I could have made it to the ceremony. Diana Schenker phoned me personally to let me know that you had been selected, and that just made my day. You two have really made a huge difference in my life and just hope that I get a chance to meet you in person one of these days.

Thank you just doesn't seem adequate.

Big Hugs from Kim in CA!

P.S. I have not been on the website for quite awhile, as I was still having troubles with computer attack warnings and then my computer freezing up. I finally had some time to really dedicate to solving the problem, and I think it's OK now. I can be very technologically challenged sometimes, and was about to call in the Geek Squad, anything to get back to my Her2 connection! http://her2support.org/vbulletin/images/icons/icon10.gif

Dear Christine and Joe,
You two have been going to bat for us ladies for years now. It seems like we all have a cross to bear from time to time and you certainly have had your own struggles, which you have continued to surmount. How grateful I am that you have chosen to share your own journey and use it as a springboard of support for the 1000's of us around the world who are fortunate enough to relate and learn from you both.
Christine, brave and gentle soul who continues to stand toe to toe with her cancer and not only win, but reach out and support the rest of us.
Joe, dedicated, fiercely loyal and supportive soul who not only supports and loves his wife but also reaches out to support the rest of us along the way.
How fortunate for us all that you are rightfully recognized and honored.
Love Kim from CT
