Mary Jo is excited to have received her "next to last" Herceptin treatment yesterday at Minnesota Oncology in Burnsville. She has only one more treatment on September 2nd. That milestone day next month will mark a full 52 weeks of Herceptin treatments which is a biologic form of chemo therapy.
Both Mary Jo and I are reaching out in this final week before the Susan G. Komen3-Day For The Cure event in a last push to raise additional donations. We are trailing in second place by about $500 of being the #1 Crew fundraisers for the Twin Cities event. We have raised a staggering $6,000 for the breast cancer cause but please forgive me, I (selfishly) want to be number one. I could really use your help if you have not had the opportunity or ability to donate thus far. It is very simple to donate and if you work for a major employer, there is a very good chance your employer will contribute matching funds, further helping this great cause. All you have to do is click on the link on the right side of this blog. You can donate as little or as much as you like. Every penny counts and is appreciated. Thanks again for all the support.
