Friday night, we attended the Relay for Life ceremony at my sister-in-law's Robin) school in Smith's Grove. Robin, has been cancer free for a year and a half. PRAISE THE LORD! She was diagnosed with cervical cancer in May of 2007, had a radical hystorectomy in June and had chemo and radiation until Christmas. She has been such an inspiration and a testimony to so many people...especially her family. It is certainly not easy to see anyone in your family go through something like cancer, but to witness the faith that Robin had (and still has) through the entire process was truly amazing. I look up to her so much and I know that Brian loves his sister more than anything.
It was so wonderful to be able to hear Robin speak and share her heart with everyone at Relay for Life. I don't know what the total was this year, but her school raised more money than any other school in Bowling Green last year. There were so many there that were either battling cancer or had been affected by it. Here is Robin speaking.
Here is Robin beginning the "Survivor Walk."
They also had all kinds of activities and games for the kids. Macy wanted her face painted like a cat and she is doing one of her favorite things...blowing bubbles.
And of course, Molly had to get her face painted too...well, she decided to have her arm painted! A flower to match her shirt. They had a ball.
