Firstly I want to thank you all for the lovely way you accepted my blog posting yesterday and the beautiful comments you left me. It wasnt something I would normally do, to publically show my loss, but I wanted to try and bring home how important it is for us to carry on the fight against cancer. I know there are lots of different ways of raising money for research but I felt that Michele had really taken on something that she was having difficulty getting people to follow and donate, as you and I both know the way the media force all these different ways into our homes and our minds, they bombard us and then try to get us to open up our pockets.
I wanted to show that it was a very personnal thing to me and if by showing and sharing a photo of my son I felt it might just encourage more of us to open our hearts and donate even a small amount to a very good cause.
Thank you so much again, and Ive posted another photo for you to see, this one is of my daughter and son together, I do hope you like this one as well. Both of the photo's were taken in December, 1964, when my son was 26 days old and my daughter was 2 years and 9th months old.

Such a lovely photograph. I love how they're gazing into one another's eyes. Thank you so much again. I have had another donation from another one of your lovely followers. I've got 11! prizes now that have been donated, so this weekend I will focus on getting donations and e-raffle tickets. Thank you, Shirley, for getting the ball rolling. I really appreciate it and will always remember it.
