Woo Hoo! We've surpassed the $1,500 goal!

Daughter Cynthia holds the banner for the Light the Night event at UCLA.

I just opened up a card from friends in Virginia, and a $25 check made out to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society came tumbling out. That check put us over the $1,500 fund raising goal.

Thank you again so much to all of my generous Cancer Banter friends who contributed to this great organization. The LLS has benefited thousands of blood cancer patients (including me) and their families.

UPDATE: Contributions are continuing to roll in, and we've now raised more than $1,700.
