Bringing this one back up ---
It was a true pleasure meeting Brenda and Laurie... and of course Laurie's lovely folks. Her dad is a hoot and her mom a wonderful lady with a beautiful smile.
For me, the biggest "take-away" from the conference is that our votes in any election are very important in the cause to find a cure for cancer. Period.
The goal is to make cancer a national issue and to use our collective vote to help elect the candidate that BEST represents our cause.
No support was provided to any specific candidate- since its up to the voter to figure out the record of any candidate...
Every minute, an American dies of cancer... 1500 a day...560,000 a year.
Over 12M people are living with cancer. Of those people there are countless family, friends and others that contend with it as well.
So, with those stats, how can any candidate ignore us ?
