Foodies and fundraisers

First off, can I just say cancer is a mother effer.  We all can agree on this I’m sure.

On July 25th I will be auctioning off a home-made treat for The Great Fundraising Act. 

Susan needs to focus on keeping her energy levels high and leave woes of hospital bills to bloggers.

    Awesome cause! My mom had cancer when I was in high school and it was an experience I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. I wish you ladies success!!

    And thanks for the sweepstakes link!

    Thanks for taking care of the expenses for me. I can’t even put into words how much I appreciate it. Not having to worry so much about the financial burden of drugs has taken SO much stress off my already way-too-weighed-down shoulders.

    Also, just want to let you know, after almost a month in the hospital, I am amazed by the work and dedication of the nurses there. They’re the reason why I haven’t lost my mind (and health) in the hospital.

    What a wonderful idea! Will most definitely enter myself into the contest – a fantastic cause and wonderful prizes. Sending lots of good thoughts and support to Susan – I am rooting for you to kick cancer’s ass!

My ferret is on her second battle with cancer and everyone from my dad to both my grandmas have had some sort of cancer… its ridiculous how many of us have someone close to us with the disease — this bakesale and auction is a fabulous cause! eff cancer!
