We wish to Thank all of You.
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

Your time and dedication is invaluable
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
