celebrations this weekend

We are getting SO excited!!! Ethan is nearing the end of this phase of chemo and has one more chemo treatment this Wednesday (09/24) before we get a week off and then get to start Maintenance. Ethan's had a lot of energy and so has been able to go to school and church a little more frequently - it has been just wonderful.


Coinciding with the end of this most intensive time of treatment is Light The Night Walk at Forest Park in St. Louis THIS Saturday September 27th. We have a team of 37 signed up to walk with Ethan and us in celebration of Ethan and solidarity with thousands of others who have been impacted by blood cancers. There is still time to sign up and join us on Saturday. Final details for the event will be sent out this week by our Team Captain Auntie Lindsay. Just click on this link to find our Team Ethan page and then click "Join" at the bottom of the screen to get signed up.

We've got a team of 10 walking with Team Ethan's Minnesota at the Light the Night Walk at Target Field THIS Sunday September 28th. If you'd still like to join their team, click here: http://pages.lightthenight.org/mn/TwinCiti14/TeamEthanMinnesota

In summary, you guys, I am super pumped. We've got nearly 50 people in 2 states that are celebrating Ethan and helping to raise awareness and money for blood cancer research. It's simply amazing and I am so thankful for all of you!!!

To cap off our weekend, we've got an Ice Cream Social Fundraiser for Team Ethan THIS SUNDAY September 28th from 11am to 1pm at Tower Grove Creamery. We are on the final leg of fundraising for Team in Training and are really excited for an afternoon of ice cream! Suggested donation is $10/person and all proceeds will go to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Please join us if you can!
