Go Sam!
Well done to Sam for supporting such a worthy cause ….as a former skin cancer sufferer am all for raising awareness !
The cancer is an evil evil thing. Super cause here Sam. What a great charitable cast this show has eh?
Definitely Lividity !
I lost my Mina to cancer and while this cause supports research for human animal cancer, it will have an affect on how canines are treated. It is an evil thing.
Thanks, Sam, for taking part in this cause. The True Blood cast are good peeps.
Two dogs, a grandma & a dad gone due to this, plus one best friend’s boobs. Not trying to make light of it. It’s an evil evil thing.
Sorry to hear that NH …cancer really is an evil thing .
Was diagnosed three years ago and am still “at risk” of it returning for another four years yet so support all research . Am part of a patient cancer research focus group here in the uk which provides up to date information /advice to cancer patients using experiences of cancer sufferers as a basis !
Thank you, Sarah. I hope all goes well with your remission and the focus group. I coulda used one of those!
Thankyou NH …i have learned life is too short so to live everyday to the full !
To you Sarah UK and NH I wish you both well you are both in my prayers tonight and from here forward. I lost both my parents to cancer. I support all who take a stand against evil affliction.
Here’s hoping everything goes the right way Sarah.
This is something I think most of us have been touched by – obviously some of us more than others. With all our fancy internets and electronic stuff, it’s still amazing to me we haven’t figured out to eradicate this.
Thankyou Jo-Ann , NH and Liv for your kind words – and echo that Liv ! I think nearly everyone knows someone who has been affected by disease .
I’ll be watching.
Stay healthy Sarah UK and stay positive, as I’m sure you know attitude matters. My son just came out of remission and he’s one of the most positive people I know. He sets a great example for others.
Hi Aemac and thanks ….good to hear that your son has recovered well . And yes i do try to stay positive all the time even in times of adversity !
