Jyoung20 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I need your stories in orginal or updated form. At the Playing for a cure event, we post stories throughout the hallways for the kids to read. Promoting empathy and awareness towards the disease as well honoring the survivors. I would love to use your story...send me a note to give me the go-ahead if it is already on the site. Otherwise, let me know and I can give you my e-mail. I would also love to have a picture accompanying the story...then the kids can see the real person behind the story. Thanks and God Bless!!!!

Jyoung20 Posted January 21, 2008 Author Share Posted January 21, 2008 Thank you Connie!!!!! The stories make it real for the kids who I am hoping will be the doctors, researchers and lung cancer advocates of tomorrow. We never know...there may be a cure waiting to be discovered in one of their little brains!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
