I am now the Survivor Co-Chair for this years Relay and I am so honored to be working with such a great group of people. I want to get as many survivors involved in Relay because I want them to know that they are not alone. Having cancer is scary and sometimes it helps to speak to someone who has been through what you have are going through. I wish I had gotten involved in a support group or Relay while I was in treatment. I did not get involved in anything until after I was finished with treatment.
Today I went to the store to get rocks and sharpies. I am making Hope rocks to pass out to survivors. There is an old saying that a rock cast upon the water will send ripples our further and further into the water. We want survivors to hand them out to someone in treatment because as a survivor, we want them to use the rock to send out “HOPE” to others on their cancer journey.
