M Best vs NHL

This is a diary of my fight against Follicular Lymphoma, a non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL).

Relay For Life 2007 is a Success!



Blogger was acting up last night so I was not able to complete my post until today.



I think that we are in the ballpark of $3,000 turned in and pledged to the Bald for Best team. The four of us that were registered (Mark, Karin, Kenny, & Joe) received an award for the highest percentage of team present all night [100%!]. The tatoo application took quite a while and many of them turned out fantastic. There were a few malfunctions and we freehanded them (thankfully there are a few artists in the group). Thanks to those that came out to support us and helped with the tattoos and artistry (Royce & Sarah, Chris & Tammy, Jennifer C, and others). Thanks to all of you for your donations and pledges. We tattooed, walked, stayed up late, snacked, slept a little, had pancakes, and had a blast. It was very, very humid and we were glad to have good cover to keep the dew off of us. There were a lot of folks with no shelter (we learned our lesson in the cold last year).



Again, thanks for your support,



Mark
