Our family team participated in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's "Light the Night" walk last Thursday. It was a lot of fun and the kids really enjoyed getting ready for it and doing something special for Grandma Debbie. We even raised $100 for the society last minute from generous friends and family!

Everyone was given a light-up balloon to "light the night". Supporters dominated with their red balloons, but it was encouraging to see a lot of white survivor balloons as well!

| Evelyn wanted her shirt to say, "I love Evelyn", so we compromised with "Love, Evelyn". |
 |
| It really does. |

We love you, Mom, and we are so proud to be your supporters. |

I applaud your gentle language!
