An Amazing Day: Thanks to the Hurlocks, The Students in HDFS at UNC-G, Annie and Nancy and CureSearch

Last Friday less than a day before the Curesearch walk a check arrived in the mail for $450 this was money raised by the students in Human Development and Family studies at UNC Greensboro selling tee shirts to raise money and awareness for Pediatric cancer research. It seemed like providence that it came when it did, so we signed the funds over to Curesearch. Then, when we were at the walk we met the Hurlock’s, their support and understanding through our journey with Elizabeth’s cancer has always been a comfort. And I was so glad that there was an opportunity to honor and remember their Elizabeth during the ceremony. And of course our Annie and Nancy were there, as they have been through out this odyssey a cherished part of our family.
The day was so bittersweet. Words escape me in describing everything that went on. I continue to be completely awed by the strength so many people……Amy, Kerrie, Jean and others whose names I won’t write, as for some the journey is so personal….
I think that we are provided with teachers as we go through our lives. These last 18 months have introduced me to many who I will always consider mentors.
