Hilary had chemo yesterday, a Chemo Day 1 so both the cisplatin and gemcitabine (Gemzar). Jennifer Campbell, who led this week’s cheer, sat with her and shared the many “selflies” and Hilary inspired images. Thank you to all who participated. I was able to view them all and so fun to see what folks submitted!

Chemo Day 2 is April 4th and Clayton Maebius is our fearless leader. Next week’s theme is Pay it Forward. Please share with Clayton, who in turn will share with Hilary, your version of Pay it Forward in honor of Hilary. This can be something in the past or future, have fun with it and most importantly share things that mean something to you.

Please send your stories to Clayton by Wednesday evening, April 2nd. 

Thank you! xo becca

Hilary has chemo in a week, Friday, March 28th and Jennifer Campbell has graciously volunteered to head up the cheer. Below is a message from Jennifer on the next theme and her deadline Sunday, March 23rd to get info. to her. Please feel free to pass this along to anyone who you think wants to participate.

A PICTURE IS WORTH 1000 WORDS.

This week’s chemo cheer will be a collection of images that YOU, Hilary’s biggest fans, think will put a smile on Hilary’s face!  “Selfies” welcome.  Nothing makes us smile more than the sight of those we love and hold dear to our hearts…so please snap a picture of yourselves and send those in without delay. Don’t go get all dolled up…just snap a shot of your smiling faces (silly faces welcome) and send it in.  Won’t it be fun for her to look through the pictures and literally SEE the faces of all of us cheering her on both near and far!?! 

After you send in the picture of YOU (& those around you cheering her on!)…feel free to text any other images that you think would bring a smile to Hilary’s face.  Examples include a picture of the sign of a restaurant you know she loves, or maybe a favorite beverage or food she enjoys, perhaps a photo of a book you know she likes…or a picture of her kids…or a pair of ice skates…you get the idea.  You may include a short line of text if necessary to be included on the photo…but images only are fine as well. 

For those that like the short version…

1. Get out your smart phone.
2. Take a picture of yourself smiling.
3. Text it to xxxxxxxx

Thanks for sending a little cheer to our dear friend Hilary!

Jennifer
