I decided today to be a Team Captain for the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life. It is going to happen here in Emmett on Aug. 21, 2009.I hope it will be both a good way to remember my Mom and in some small way will help somebody else's Mom in their fight against Cancer.
Here is a LINK to my personal page, and a LINK to my team page. I have decided to call my team "The Daring Daughters". My good friend Lyn is my first team member. Thanks Lyn! Lyn also lost her Mom to cancer a few years ago. We are the Daughters, and we are Daring!
I'll be posting updates here on my blog as well as on my team page.
Here we go!! Come join my team!
Love you Mom.

THANK YOU for sharing the exact moments of your mom's passing! My 87 yr old dad passed August of 2009 in his home. My two sisters and myself were there to assist him. What a blessing it was to be part of his journey into eternity and his heavenly home.
When he came home from the hospital to die he declared with such confidence that he was "having lunch with Jesus on Saturday". That was Wednesday. Thursday he entered a coma state, and at 11:05 AM on Saturday he was gone.
I said to my sisters, "I guess they serve lunch early in heaven."
My youngest sister replied, "I don't think so. Don't you remember how daddy always left an hour early for every appointment so he'd never be late? He just left an hour early."
She was absolutely right. Daddy didn't want to be late!
