Relay For Life







Hello my friends hope you all are breathing easy this evening, the temps here in florida are awesome upper 60's low 80's light humidity I would love these temps. all year long..lol I have been walking more each day , exercise is good for us with Lung Disease only to be done as tolerated and also check with your Dr. For the first time I participated in a "Relay for Life" this past weekend, let me tell you it was wonderful



The photo above shows a group of Cancer Survivors and their affiliation "New Voice Club" of Fort Myers all these folks has had their voice box removed due to cancer each and every one of them are an inspiration to all of us. The meaning of relay for life starts at dusk and ends at the next day's morning. The light and darkness of day and night parallel the physical effects, emotions and mental state of a cancer patient while undergoing treatment. Everyone thru out the nite walked the track for a half hour and each time handed off their baton to the next walker, I walked from 5:30 Sat. am till 6:00am what an honor for me. As a participant, you feel the brightness of the morning and know the end of Relay is close at hand. I sure was beat then then I think of what the patients are going thru and they know we are there beside them.
I am blessed each and every day to greet the morning sun !
Until we meet again my friends remember,

Breathe Easy,
Sandy
