It Won't Happen That Way: Report on Donations to Partners in Hope.

Thanks for stopping by

This blog is about our journey with life while living with cancer. John was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer in February 2014. And so we walk "Side by Side." The title of the blog has been a phrase that Joyce and I have used for the past several years. It has been our way to deal with the reality that most plans and most days don't happen the way we had pictured it in our mind. And it has been our way to learn to anticipate the unexpected.

Report on Donations to Partners in Hope.

Just received an updated report from Partners in Hope regarding the contributions that friends and family gave to them in honor of our multi-celebration.

Donation of items made a contribution of $540 in value.
Cash donations totaled $355, with a total donation of $895.

Joyce and I are overwhelmed with your generosity that helps benefit a great organization. I was impressed when the staff said that if they get a big jug of laundry detergent, they divide it into smaller amounts to help more people. And the Christian Auto Repair Program is such a help to those who struggle to keep their car running and safe.
