October 10, 2007 Page 2

Thanks Denise, Averys, Cheryl deG, family and others for all. I haven't returned phone calls because I'm weak and a little emotional.

Denise and her family went on "the" walk this last week. I appreciate this. I don't know that I understood why these walks and attention were something that a survivor was so affected by.

I was at the grocery for a minute and they asked me if I wanted to donate to the cause. I told them I was already over abundantly donating to the cause and to ask me next year. My attitude will be sooo different. I might have to be a poster child! The clerk was also stuck a little harder about what she was asking when she realized I was going through the process right now!

It's interesting to see one's self view from a different platform. I truly understand not to judge until walking in someone else's shoes. The pain and trials people go through every minute of every day are so unnoticed. Yet the actions of some are so admired when they are noticed. Thank you to those who have been giving sooo much to me these last few weeks. It is truly appreciated.

Yeah! You are officially a blogger. I love how you and Steve set it up. Perhaps I will be next to join the blogging ranks. The "walk" was a huge success. I was so humbled by the thousands of supporters, but even more than that was the spirit of hope and unity passed around by all of those survivors! I was so happy to be among them :) What a great idea--a head shaving party. Who had the honor of shaving the queen? I would have liked to help! I hope you took pictures. I am glad your first chemo is over. Perhaps the future sessions will be less stressful. You Can Do This! Love, Dee Gam

Hi Cindi! Had you on my mind so thought I would send a quick note. I sent a request to friends in India, and they are now praying for you too. Of course I did not give your name only what you are facing. I know it is cheesy, but even as I type I hear that quintessential song by Queen, and lady you ARE a Champion! With Greatest Love ... Korey
