When and where is this cancer ride? How much is it to ride? Does it support any particular type of cancer research? My wife just passed away from metastatic melanoma a few days ago. There are no fund raisers that I have found for Melanoma.
Lost my beautiful 36 yr old daughter to leukemia in December She left to sons 13 and 10 who miss her very much. would like to know more on how to get involved in fund raising ,rides etc to fight this thief if life All of us who ride would more than likely support this effort if the word was spread on how do so.Any help? Thanks Bob in Vegas.P.S. God Bless for what U R doing
We Ride next weekend in Maryland for the Susan G. Koman foundation. Starting in Columbia Maryland and riding to Ocean City. I have personally raised almost $5000.00 for the cause and look forward to one day totally eliminating this horrible diease.
My prayers are with those who are suffering and I pray that one day there will be no more.
God Bless you all.
I just want to let anyone and everyone know, my prayers and thoughts are with you all who are suffering this senseless disease, and those who are care-takers.
I'm a survivor of ovarian cancer stage 3, I've been in remission for 2 years. What a battle! I know the emotions that are involved. Just thinking about it I'm getting an anxiety attack, it's all to familiar to me.
Reach for hope and embrace it,making it your own. I feel this is what go me through it, plus a positive attitude. I send my love to you all.

BORROW MINE
~~~~~~~~~~
Take my hand and walk with me a while Cause it seems your smile has left you
And don't give in, when you fall apart And your broken heart has failed you
I'll set a light up On a hilltop To show you my love For this world to see
You can borrow mine When your hope is gone Borrow mine When you can't go on
Cause the world will not defeat you When we're side by side when your faith is hard to
find You can borrow mine
Take my love when all that you can see Is the raging sea all around us
And don't give up 'cause I'm not letting go And the God we know will not fail us
We'll lay it all down As we call out Sweet Savior help our unbelief
You can borrow mine When your hope is gone Borrow mine When you can't go on
'Cause the world will not defeat you When we're side by side When your faith is hard to
find You can borrow mine
When you are weak, Unable to speak, You are not alone. The God who has saved us
Will never forsake us, he's coming to take us Take us to our home
You can borrow mine When your hope is gone Borrow mine When you can't go on
'Cause the world will not defeat you When we're side by side, When your faith is hard to
find, When your faith is hard to find You can borrow mine
Take my hand Take my love Don't give in Don't give up
I found out yesterday my step sister has Breast Cancer. I know she's devastated. She as a two year old son. I haven't talked to her yet..I don't even know what to say.
For those of you that are in the Southeast Wisconsin, Northeast Illinois area.....there is a ride on June 11th for the relay for life. It is in Gurnee, IL. Do a search for gurnee relay for life, it will come up. Just added will be a dedication board to sign up on and then they will read the names at the walk later that evening. Just some food for thought.

I know what is like to go through chemo and radiation and still be there to raise your family. Keep a positive attitude for your mom and call on me for anything. You and your family are in my prayers

Welcome to the family. My prayers are with you and your mom. What you are about to begin is the craziest rollercoaster ride God allowed to be created. Hang on and help her hang on. The highs are incredible and the low points on this ride are cruel. Contact me anytime you need an ear or a shoulder.

I know it is not much help to you, but down here i Aus we have a good melanoma reserch program. Like you i lost my girl to it abouot three years ago. know how ya feel bro, if i can do anything ta help ya pls drop me a line.
Sorry to hear about your loss,RUNT. It was not a fun experience for either of us. Here is a hug for ya.
I will get an email off to ya and we can start building an alias related to this cause.
Melanoma research anywhere is awesome. The bottom line is we need to find a way to prevent it. It is one of the more aggressive cancers. I am still thinking about this run and how to put it together. It would be great if it were a global thing. I just have not been able to focus on it yet. I will get there. Again, the more ideas the better. Good things don't happen over night. A lot of thought and planning is required to make it right.
Yeah sounds good to me,
take your time with it as i know it is all very hard to deal with this sort of thing after you have lost someone close.
Time for the formal stuff.
My name is Ged, like the clampets but spelt different lol.
i am not yet a full member so I can only reply to emails, and have found that some of my replies dont get through, so if worst comes to worst we can start sorting things out in here.
All the best m8, look forward to hearing from you soon.

P.S.
Thanks for the hug to Bro,
Have one back.

Awesome idea Springer. I'm up in Canada, but if you run a round the states relay, count me in for a leg in the Northwest. I'm in a poker run for Cancer research tomorrow, it's such a worthy cause I'm always down for pitching in where I can.
