Oh I don't want to be a downer, but I suppose I'll feel better if I talk about it... :\

 

We're having a Relay for Life at my school, which is a big fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. It's an overnight event where you get people to donate money to your team and you stay up all night taking turns with teammates walking around a track. It actually can be a lot of fun because it's like a giant sleepover, and it's for a good cause. :nice:

One of my very close friends died of cancer this past summer, so this year I am much more invested in fundraising and participating in this event than I have been in years past. I've been able to accept it and move on and everything, but I just sent out an email to some people asking for donations and it just kind of made a lot of old, very sad feelings resurface. I just really miss her tonight.

.... :hug::hug:

 

Sorry to hear Sarah, cancer is the worst disease there is.. I understand why you are feeling sad, all too well..

And don't worry about being a downer, it's okay!!

 

I wish I could give you a big reallife hug right now.. :hug:

Thanks Hester. :hug:

 

I don't want to come in here and make everyone feel all sorry for me. Writing that email just got me thinking about these things.

She's actually the reason I decided to start studying education. It was something she was really passionate about and her enthusiasm for it was just contagious, and so she inspired me to work with children as well. If it wasn't for her, my life would be very different.

Im so so sorry Sarah! I know how you feel, but I bet this is going to make you feel better when your doing the fundraiser. And that your fighting for something!!!

:hug:x1000000

:)

Thanks guys. :)

Again, sorry to be a downer. I don't want to ruin the fun we normally have in this thread! :P

 

Anyway, I think I'm going to try to head off to bed. Have a good night Joe and a good morning Hester, and we will chat later!

Byeee! :kiss:

It's great to be that much inspired by a friend! And with that, you'll be having memories of her, where ever you go. :nice: And I'm sure that she's glad she inspired you..

 

Argh, there's so much I'd want to say but there are no words to express myself.. Annoying! :confused:

Thanks guys. :)
