Thanks for sharing the pictures, Gang! Looks like it was a great day and great fun! I saw A BUNCH of familiar faces. JudyS - - you look smashing! I think I also saw a couple of pictures of Stephanie's (aka, ts) MIchael. Brought tears to my eyes. I'm so glad that he was there. And, little Lucy has gotten so big since we last saw her (and is looking so much more like Melissa). . .She's gorgeous! You all looked fabulous (and oh so athletic)! Thanks again!
Cheers!

Thanks Laya! it was a fun day, considering how I really don't know what I am doing... it all came together. We did have Judy there, and Michael came. Michael spoke - as well as Dr. West, another patient - Andy Hill and Dr. Loiselle spoke also.
Dr. Farivar was there also. Many other familiar faces - I would love it if people went to the pictures which are housed in our Facebook account - and tagged themselves, also uploaded more pictures...
I will try to post a few videos at some point. I really would love to get more GRACE'ers there. but the community being all over the world is a tough one to get them to convene here. :)
Lucie is looking more and more like Melissa, isn't she? She got our prize for best dressed runner -- in her red skirt and flipflops...
Operations Director for GRACE. Have worked with cancerGRACE.org since July 2009. Became involved as a caregiver to my best friend, and quickly came to see that GRACE is filling a need in the area of cancer education.

I posted on another thread to say thank you Denise for the pictures, as advertised by JudyS:

Great fun to look at - and what an excellent turnout of children and dogs! Congratulations to all the runners, walkers, speakers and donut eaters. Very glad to hear an update on MIchael. Thanks again for allowing the benighted folk who don't live in Seattle to share your day.

I loved all the kids participation it was really quite notable. It looked like a great turnout. Lucie, awe, I remember that running attire, she looks good. I hope too that others add names to the pics. Now that I know which one is Lucie I know 2 people, Dr. West and Lucie.
I wish I could have been there but if I could afford to make the trip I'd give it to the Grace fund instead. Such is the online community.
