A CRAZY WEEK---

We are back from NYC-- I know some are wondering why I have not posted anything in awhile so I thought I would do a quick update-- Grier had 2 days of tests in NYC-- the same ones he always has so nothing was out of the norm. He was a trooper as usual-- I really can not explain what he actually has to do in a short amount of time--- you would be amazed! And the best part is when he leaves the hospital doors he seems to be OK-- He likes NYC for a few days at a time-- actually I like it for a few days-- so this trip was almost perfect-- we arrived Monday at 6pm and left Wednesday at 7pm-- I do not know any details of the results-- We have to wait on those to see what clinical "trial" Grier can participate in-- That is the part that makes me crazy-- there is nothing out there better than a "trial"! I am not going into details but we are in for a long couple of months with lots of NYC trips-- and the hard part will be to balance NYC life with CLT life because that is just as important~

Tomorrow is a big day for the Go Grier Go team--- we will walk and participate in the 2nd annual Milestones Walk at Freedom Park--- Our team is almost 200 people strong this year and there are several people on the team that have raised over $500 on their own-- That is AWESOME!!! The only way we are going to end this madness is through research so they can find a cure and I am proud of our team for stepping up and making a difference- I got an email from someone and they said they walked in the Avon walk and it raised Millions and she hoped someday that would be the case for pediatric cancer--- I agree but until we ALL make kids a priority than it will not happen--- I think the nicest thing you can do is help raise awareness in honor of a child-- There was a bake sale at the Rogers home last weekend-- they raised $200 for Cookies for Kids Cancer in honor of Grier-- I hear they had a good time doing it-- It is those things that make me smile-- Thanks to all that helped!!!! I was also told of a bake sale in the works-- and it sounds like it will be awesome too--- this helps me more than you know !

Watch this video-- I promise it will inspire you to make a difference --- I get asked all the time if I need something--- and I don't know what I need most of the time and sometimes I need things that no one can give me but by doing things like having a bake sale helps me by knowing that you are in this fight with us--www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr03uNt4dLk-

I have a new brand I love and that is GLAD--- finally a company to step up and make a difference for children-- www.gladtogive.com --

Thanks to all those who are walking in person or in spirit tomorrow in Charlotte-- I hope with increased awareness and funding more kids will reach their MileStones without dealing with cancer and the side effects from the current treatments available-

See ya'll at 9:30am --- if you are coming to stroll around the lake- more to come later---
