Relay For Life

We had a great time at Relay for Life! The girls invited their friend, Julia, also an Rb survivor and camp friend, to the event. It's a bit jarring to see your little child in a sea of older women (and a 21 year old survivor). I actually think that when we got there, people thought that I was the one with cancer, and that I couldn't get a babysitter or something. I overheard a woman - when Joli and Julia got in line to do the survivor lap - say, "Oh my god. It's the kids who had cancer...."

Joli and Julia doing the Survivor Lap. Blurry on purpose because I'm not sure who wants to be identified in this group.

Our family, Julia and her mom Donna

I love Julia's glasses--those would look great on Jo.

I heard you're sick--hope you're feeling better.
