Score For Sarcoma

Happy Valentines day everyone, I hope you all enjoyed the warm weather this weekend.

I have mentioned a few times that some friends and I were planning on putting on a fundraiser for Emory here in Atlanta, and we have finally released the details for "Score for Sarcoma"!  We have setup a facebook event for the occasion and this is the link:  https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=162777997107549

To summarize the event, we are hosting a flag football tournament and then cocktail reception at a great spot in Atlanta called Manuel's Tavern.  I hope everyone will either attend or consider donating to our cause.  We are trying to raise money for those cancer patients that are most critically in need of support.  I have written a lot on this blog over the last six months about how lucky and fortunate I have been with such an amazing support network, which is in stark contrast to a lot of cancer patients out there.  Not only have I come across fellow patients with limited support from family and friends, but also with limited financial means to fight this disease.  The proceeds from my event will go to Emory's fund that helps the most needy with prescriptions, and other expenses related to treatment.

Please help us raise money so that everyone has a fighter's chance of beating cancer!

  1. Happy Valentines Day (late) to you Michael! Your energy is so great, and the ideas and creativity just keeps on going. Many will benefit from your experience. I had to laugh at your comment about getting rid of your "passenger" very funny! Keeping you in prayers as always. Best to all your family!
