I know with my dad too, it wasn't the cancer but the treatments that almost took his life. <br />I will keep your dad in my prayers and I'm sure the love and support of you and other family members is very helpful in maintaining his positive attitude.RuthieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663411478574192825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4854762792778878452.post-90361438857608564972009-08-13T16:21:33.679-05:002009-08-13T16:21:33.679-05:00Hola Ruthie,

It was quite inspiring to see all the survivors and volunteers in action.<br /><br />Thanks Jayne. The medical advances in cancer treatments are amazing and it was neat to see that so many people are survivors.<br /><br />Hi Troutbirder,<br />I thought about all those poor volunteers when I was laying in bed listening to the thunderstorm at 3:30 AM. Bummer!!<br /><br />You know what Lynne? I got goosebumps and tears too! Those survivors are amazing.<br /><br />Hi Jack,<br />Thanks for visiting my blog and sharing the link (very neat video!)<br /><br />Thanks Dawn. (in case you're wondering, I knitted caps for both of them during their treatments too!)<br /><br />Thanks Mary. We did have a good visit although it went by too fast! We had some good warm weather for those Californians too!<br /><br />Hi Mary Lee,<br />I was amazed by the number of luminarias too--every single one either in memory of or honor of a cancer victim. It really made me realize how much cancer touches all of us.<br /><br />Hi CarolR,<br />Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm glad you enjoyed stopping by and hope you can visit again.RuthieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663411478574192825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4854762792778878452.post-5714703426698026432009-08-10T19:15:41.887-05:002009-08-10T19:15:41.887-05:00Hi.

How special to have both father and son speak at the survivor presentation. I sure hope you and Phil and Charlie have had a good visit. BTW, Phil really looks very well.
