needs

 

we don’t have many. we have food, flowers, a purple couch, scarves to cover leanne’s head. some of you need to give. i know that. i feel that too.

and now we have remission.  whoever gave us that, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!
what a NICE gift!!!!

some people don’t have remission, though, and some may not get it (as far as our govt is concerned).
if you want to do something to help stop the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services from ditching two radioimmunotherapy drugs (Bexxar and Zevalin), please sign the petition.

one thing we don’t need more of is cancer books. we have a stack, and plus, we’re writing our own :)

  • Dan,
    Leanne first brought music into my life in 1990. Today I still hear her music, clearly, accompanied by her laughter of course. Let me help provide her with music now. You think an ipod would be best? It’s in the mail. Just let me know what she’d like…I am at delozierm@hotmail.com! Thx! Marit

  • music and words are powerful healers…if anyone has a song that reminds them of lee, knows of a good book on cd, has their own recording, finds particular lyrics hilarious or inspiring, let me know at the address above and she’ll have it to listen to as part of her “beatdown mix!” (sending her something directly that she can download would also be swell…but not “beat it” by michael jackson…that would be cheesy…i’m cheesy…maybe i’ll send it).

  • Marit,

    I don’t really know which are Leanne’s faves, but a friend of ours (whom Dan and Leanne met at our wedding) has a gigantic music collection. I’d like to send it to you, and then you or Dan can choose the winners. I’ll send the collection to you on a portable hard drive; I just need your snail mail address. You can post it here or send it to fmilito@hotmail.com.

  • Dear Dan & Leanne,

    Where does one begin? Please know that you are in our thoughts and we are wishing you the best. I want to say something profound and inspiring, but who can compete with your amazing blog? I can cook and babysit and drive and run errands. Please do not hesitate to call or email (kirstenmau@comcast.net or 303.870.5376). I’ll coordinate with Cami to deliver some food.

    Love and strength,

    Kirsten and Paul

  • “one thing we don’t need more of is cancer books. we have a stack, and plus, we’re writing our own”

    I must tell you this made me laugh out loud. I can’t tell you how many books we got when my husband was fighting cancer.

    All the best always,
    The Wise family

  • Dear Leanne,
    I’m in my way to the Kotel, I post this Tehilim sentences in your name, for your quick recovery and hapiness.
    Mara, from the Holy Land

    TEHILIM , Chapter 32

    8. I will enlighten you and educate you in the path you should go; I will advise you with what I have seen.
    9. Be not like a horse, like a mule, senseless, that must be muzzled with bit and bridle when being adorned, so that it not come near you.
    10. Many are the agonies of the wicked, but he who trusts in the Lord is surrounded by kindness.
    11. Rejoice in the Lord and exult, you righteous ones! Sing joyously, all you upright of heart!

    ח אַשְׂכִּילְךָ, וְאוֹרְךָ–בְּדֶרֶךְ-זוּ תֵלֵךְ; אִיעֲצָה עָלֶיךָ עֵינִי.
    ט אַל-תִּהְיוּ, כְּסוּס כְּפֶרֶד– אֵין הָבִין:
    בְּמֶתֶג-וָרֶסֶן עֶדְיוֹ לִבְלוֹם; בַּל, קְרֹב אֵלֶיךָ.
    י רַבִּים מַכְאוֹבִים, לָרָשָׁע: וְהַבּוֹטֵחַ בַּיהוָה–חֶסֶד, יְסוֹבְבֶנּוּ.
    יא שִׂמְחוּ בַיהוָה וְגִילוּ, צַדִּיקִים; וְהַרְנִינוּ, כָּל-יִשְׁרֵי-לֵב.

  • I gave

    Give

    It will make you feel good

    It’s like 25 little kisses when you send $25.
