WELCOME TO ALI'S SITE 
The above photo was taken in Manuel Antonio National Park at the white sand beach. This is what we want to see done to cancer...washed away and eliminated!
Welcome to Ali's site! She was diagnosed with ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia)pre B cell on August 26, 2002, when she was 15 years old. She followed POG 9905B, taking daily chemotherapy with numerous treatments and setbacks. On Easter Sunday 2005, Ali took her last oral chemotherapy. On May 1, 2005 we celebrated ALi's 18th Birthday, Off Treatment and upcoming high school Graduation!! On June 5th, Ali's sister Lex and I rode 100 miles around Lake Tahoe on a TNT ride for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society fundraiser in honor of Ali.
On June 4th of 2006, Ali's brother, her dad and I rode 100 miles around Tahoe once more in honor of Ali and in memory of our 6 year old friend Angel Ben

"What does a cow take for cancer?"
"KEMOO!" This was our friends Mark and Gorete's rental car plates when they came to visit. Being a cow lover, I couldn't pass up the photo op of Ali and the KEMOO plates!

Thursday, 26 June, 2008 RELAY is over for 2008! It feels great to have it behind me as summer begins!
Marielle and Ethan from ALL-KIDS joined us this year. It is Marielle's 3rd Relay with us...her town's Relay is always on her birthday weekend so we are fortunate to have her join us. This is her first Relay off treatment!!
Ethan is counting down the days until he goes off treatment! After 3 years and 4 months of daily chemo, he will only take an antibiotic for 6 more months! Way to go Ethan!! - Ethan's mom Andrea was a lifesaver...she was able to fill in and speak at our Relay with less than a week's notice! THANKS Andrea!!
Ali flew in from North Carolina just in time to see the end of the Survivor's Lap...here she is above with Ethan.
Postcard Cindy came down from Sonoma to help with Relay...I was fortunate to have her help and another friend Cynthia's help to make my job as Survivor Chair go smoothly. They manned the booth while I escaped for an hour to go to my school's incoming kindergarten picnic. Here's Postcard Cindy with our Survivor banner with Noah's name on it.
Thanks to all for your love and support over the past 5 years that we have Relayed!
