I know at Man Approved Diet I normally talk about
food and share my recipes, but today I’m doing something a little different and
I think all of you out there in cyberland will understand. I usually try to do my part to help out wherever
I can, from simple things like donating to the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW,
or the guys with the poppies) or giving the Girl Scouts money to send cookies
to our troops overseas (I got some while I was deployed and there was nothing
quite like it). I’ve also done a couple
crazier things, like jumping in the Chesapeake Bay in January as part of the
Polar Bear Plunge to support the Special Olympics for a couple of years.
This year I’ve decided to participate in the
American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life.
As you can probably guess, it’s an event to raise money for cancer
research and awareness. By awareness I
don’t mean letting people know there’s cancer, there isn’t a need for
that. Nearly everyone knows of at least
one person whose life has been affected by cancer. What I mean when I say awareness is getting
people to go to the doctor and get a screening done or finding out what risk
factors they have in their lives and how to change them for the better.
Relay for Life is a team walking event. The event lasts anywhere from a few hours up
to 24 hours, with each team having at least one member on the track at all
times. The Relay for Life event that I’m
participating in is 12 hours long, from 7 pm to 7am starting on May 3rd. My personal goal is to walk at least six
hours of it, but if I can get my knees to cooperate with me by then, I will be
walking the entire time. I’m already
starting to train to walk for that long, I’ve been going out hiking for a few
hours at a time. I figure hiking is
harder than walking on a track, so if I can handle four or five hours out
there, six or more on the track will be no problem.
Relay for Life is a fundraising event, so I’m
working on finding different ways for my team to reach our goal. My personal goal is $500. It sounds like a lot, but I think it’s going
towards a worthy cause. I’ll admit that
I’m going to need some help getting there, but I’m sure you guys will help
me.
The first way you can help is just by giving me some
fundraising ideas. I know we have a
garage sale planned and we are trying to work out the details for a 50/50
drawing with a couple home based businesses.
After the Girl Scout cookies have all been eaten, we might be able to do
a bake sale. But my team and I could
always use more ideas, especially since we have a couple months to work on it.
The second way would be to donate to Relay for
Life. If you click on the button below
it will take to you to my official American Cancer Society fundraising page or
go to http://main.acsevents.org/goto/sailorsarah. I thought it would be best just to send you
to that link so that way you know that your donation is going to Relay for Life
and I’m not using it for personal reasons.
Although I wouldn’t say no if you wanted to fund my next vacation :-)
Another way would be to share my button on your
blog. I figure the more people who see
it, the more likely someone is going to donate.
And who knows, maybe someone out there would be inspired to talk to
their doctor about their cancer risk and what steps they can take to lower that
risk.

Just know whatever help you can give is greatly
appreciated!
Thank you!

I'm 55-year-old from Paris, I was diagnosed with second-stage liver cancer following a scheduled examination to monitor liver cirrhosis. I had lost a lot of weight. A CT scan revealed three tumors; one in the center of my liver in damaged tissue and two in healthy portions of my liver. No chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment was prescribed due to my age, the number of liver tumors. One month following my diagnosis I began taking 12 (350 point) Salvestrol supplements per day, commensurate with my body weight. This comprised six Salvestrol Shield (350 point) capsules and six Salvestrol Gold (350 point) capsules, spread through the day by taking two of each capsule after each main meal. This level of Salvestrol supplementation (4,000 points per day) was maintained for four months. In addition, I began a program of breathing exercises, chi exercises, meditation, stretching and stress avoidance. Due to the variety of conditions that I suffered from, I received ongoing medical examinations. Eleven months after commencing Salvestrol supplementation But all invalid so I keep searching for a herbal cure online that how I came across a testimony appreciating Dr Itua on how he cured her HIV/Herpes, I contacted him through email he listed above, Dr Itua sent me his herbal medicine for cancer to drink for two weeks to cure I paid him for the delivering then I received my herbal medicine and drank it for two weeks and I was cured until now I'm all clear of cancer, I will advise you to contact Dr Itua Herbal Center On Email...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com.
