Cathy Nerenberg's Dandelife : The story of Cathy Nerenberg's life http://dandelife.com/cnerenberg Cathy Nerenberg's Dandelife : The story of Cathy Nerenberg's life My First Marathon http://dandelife.com/story/22878 <p>Okay - I'm going to try something different in the fundraising world.&nbsp; The way I look at it the world of Dandelife is a group of people with stories to share.&nbsp; Due to some recent unfortunate incidents I've had to privatize my world for a bit, but this is one important message.&nbsp; </p> <p>I've recently decided to run the San Diego Rock and Roll Marathon to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.&nbsp; I've been training with a great group of people who have been encouraging and supportive and are literally kicking my ass to make it across the finish line.</p> <p>15 years ago I watched as leukemia slowly took the life of my best friends 5 year old baby girl. When she left us, she was unreckonizable because of the medication and her parents were having a hard time remember the goods times - face it, they had spent the last 4 months in the ICU watching their child die.&nbsp; The devastation of the disease is overwhelming.&nbsp;&nbsp; I'm racing for her and others who have lost their lives, for those that are currently battling with the disease and for my children and others who are thankfully healthy. </p> <p>So here's the experiment - I thought I would put this out to the Dandelifers out there to see what I can do.&nbsp; Heck, even if each Dandelifer contributed $1.00 it would make a huge difference!&nbsp; </p> <p>If you do decide to help, please make sure you tag your donation with &quot;Dandelife&quot; - I'll make sure that Kelly is updated on a daily basis so he can see the difference that&nbsp;his little website can make.&nbsp; Just follow this link&nbsp; -&nbsp; <a href="http://www.active.com/donate/tntsdh/tntsdhCNerenb">http://www.active.com/donate/tntsdh/tntsdhCNerenb</a></p> <p>Thank you in advance.</p> <p>Peace, </p> <p>Cathy</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Thu Feb 22 23:51:27 UTC 2007 http://dandelife.com/story/22878 Cathy Nerenberg
