Jack - Congrats and sincerest best wishes - to you and the wonderful volunteers who will help you to reach your goal. I think when it comes to people passionate about a cause, there is no stopping them. Can we ever have too many voices raised or too much information shared when it comes to BC awareness. I don't think so. I, for one, hope to live long enough to see BC as well known as breast cancer...wouldn't that be awesome. Sadly, I sometimes think that it takes a famous person to be dx'd with a type of cancer in order for it to receive sufficient visibility. And even then, the famous person must be willing to go public for it to really have a major impact in the media.
Meanwhile, I think we warriors have to keep making an effort in whatever way we can. There are times when we may not all agree on the details but we can stay united and focus on the end result...increased awareness and the chance to improve the quality of life for the BC patient. So many of us have been affected by BC in such personal and life changing ways, and we have the desire to help make the journey for others less threatening, less difficult and less painful. What a blessing it is to be able to hep others find their way. Sure, there are times when we may feel we don't have the time, energy or funds to do what we would like, but any small effort we make can make a profound and positive difference in the life of another. So, I say, GO, WARRIORS GO!!!!!
P.S. When I first put my website together, I wanted to use the address: bcwarriors.com but Lo and Behold
I discovered that address was already taken by Canadian sports club...hockey I think....so I then made mine...bladdercancerwarrior.com
Anyway, it all worked out. Melodie
