Were you aware that every four minutes someone is diagnosed with a blood cancer?  How about every 10 minutes someone loses their fight?  That equates to over 957,000 Americans currently living with a blood cancer diagnosis. 

Those are some pretty large lemons to consume so we are doing our very best to help convert those lemons into lemonade by raising funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society so that others can be as blessed as we were when Cutler was saved two years ago.

Nearly two years after his bone marrow transplant!

As part of our latest fund-raising effort for Light The Night – Plano 2011, http://pages.lightthenight.org/ntxok/Plano11/TeamCutler, we are continuing a tradition started last year by our good friends where we have the kids “run” a lemonade stand and all proceeds go to our fund-raising efforts.  Last year we were able to raise $160 with little to no advertising/planning and so this year with little to no planning we are hoping to get at least that much. 

Actually this year we are slightly more prepared as we actually had an article published in the Murphy Messenger inviting everyone over to the house hoping to increase the traffic and donations.  We will have lemonade, cookies, snowcones, and a bounce house. 

So, for those that don’t receive/read the paper, please consider this your personal invitation to come on over and join us on 10/15 from 1pm to 5pm.

Location:  429 Whisperfield Dr  Murphy, TX  75094

Hope to see you all there!
