Fighting THE CC War!

As parents, your number one purpose in life is to care for your kids. When they get boo-boos, you pull out your super hero band-aids and kiss it all better, when they get their feelings hurt, you pick them up, give them a hug, and make them feel loved!





But sometimes, some parents have to experience the kind of hurt that isn't fixed with a band-aid. It can be scary, it can hurt really bad, it can make you feel miserable, you can have good days or bad days, it can go away as quickly as it came or it can stay...forever.





Childhood Cancer is something that makes your heart cringe to even talk about . Kids are so young and should be able to experience life to the fullest but sometimes they are faced with this awful illness and have to grow up much faster than we want them too.





When I was in jr. high, one of my dear friends passed away from childhood cancer. She had a beautiful soul the entire time she was going through it. She lost her hearing, she lost her hair, but she never lost her spirit, which is what I remember most.





On September 28th Chili's restaurant will be hosting a fundraiser to help fight childhood cancer. They are donating 100% of their profits to the fight! My family doesn't eat out often but we will that night.

This is Wiley King, a warrior in the fight against childhood cancer. Wiley's precious mother and I worked together at the Law School. She is just as strong and just as brave as any solider I know, as is Wiley!

Please plan to take your lunch break or have family dinner at Chili's on the 28th! if you already have plans, stop by there and create-a-pepper! As parents, we have to rally together to win this war and with leaders like Mrs. Stacey and Wiley, I know we can!
