RSVP for Tuesday’s Twitter Party With the American Cancer Society
If you ask anyone, you will find that almost everyone knows or has known someone who has suffered from, is currently struggling with, or who passed away from some form of cancer. When I was 13, my neighbor died of breast cancer, when I was 15, my mom’s best friend died from Leukemia, and not too many years ago my dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer.
While we may all know people whose lives are altered by cancer, we may not all be familiar with the causes, the prevention, and how we can help.
Party Topic
This Tuesday night, join members from the American Cancer Society (ACS) blogger’s council along with the Mom It Forward community at a #gno Twitter party to raise awareness for cancer and to help Renee Ross raise funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in support of her friend’s daughter who suffers from the disease. (Click on the widget in the right-hand side bar for more information).
The party goes from 9-11 p.m. ET (8-10 CT, 7-9 MT, and 6-8 PT).

Excellent cause – see you there
I am so excited to see this subject for tonight. Not only will I be in SLC with SkinnyMamaNish, but I am also a Registered Nurse, over 20 years. Oncology (Cancer) Certified RN for more than 12 years. Have been a current Cancer Center Manager and have been an active Relay for Life Team captain. I have been in the past trained to be a facilitator with several ACS sponsored support programs. I taught and led the 8-12 week support/educational program for survivors and their caregivers. I am looking forward to being able to contribute to this discussion!
