JUNE 29TH: THE RIDE TO CONQUER CANCER
MAY 14TH: ARTSCAPE - A BLOOD DONOR CLINIC


Dear friends,
These days I am feeling somewhat like the peace lily I was given while an inpatient at PMH during that very cruel and cold month of January. The plant, having long lost its delicate white lilies has once again began to flower. Although I am long past the white lily stage of my life, I am also feeling regenerated. It is wonderful to know that spring has finally arrived and I can celebrate both my new-found energy and revitalized spirit. I may not have found a stem cell donor match but for the time being I continue to be in remission and I can enjoy the moment as I immerse myself in other projects.

THE RIDE TO CONQUER CANCER - June 20 – 22
I am thrilled to announce that we have raised $17.383.00 so far in our Ride to Conquer Cancer. This means that the four members of the team, Sebastian, Liam, Laura and Sarah qualify to participate in the Ride on June 20th thanks to your extraordinarily generous support.
