Holidays can be a special time to connect with loved ones. I have seen another side with 3 family members and friends that are bravely fighting Cancer. My family decided to live for the today, cherish the time together, let things go that don’t really matter and make each moment count.
This is a big cyber hug to families dealing with Cancer. You are not alone.
The American Cancer Society’s “More Birthday” campaign is an inspiring movement (their motto is “less Cancer – more birthdays”). Cool Mom Picks posted about the artists that are joining the movement. I hope everyone will check out the “More Birthdays” site and see the many ways to get involved.
One of my favorites listed in the post was a birthday song by Jack Black (especially after I just interviewed Jack Black about his new movie coming out today – Gullivers Travels).
So I will take the American Cancer Society’s “More Birthday” motto and add my spin as my holiday wish “More Moments – Less Cancer“.
