Hi Everyone,

The 2018 2nd Annual Cabral’s Crusaders fundraiser is 4 short weeks away!! EEK!!! If you haven’t already, please purchase your tickets via this blog under the Menu tab!

We have a great night planned complete with appetizers, a craft beer tasting, so many wonderful raffle and silent auction items, a great DJ and so many wonderful people coming together!!

I am so fortunate to have so many wonderful people in my life who truly care and have taken on this cause, my cause, as their own. I am thankful for each and every one of you every day but feel the love especially with all of the help that has rolled in putting this event together! I look forward to seeing and celebrating with all of you in a few weeks.

When I was first diagnosed, I was assigned a social worker from DFCI. I believe that this is normal course for anyone diagnosed with cancer, especially Stage 4! Through this social worker they provided me with information for various foundations that provide help to cancer patients. One of those foundations was the Joe Andruzzi foundation. A wonderful organization providing so much help to so many cancer patients. They had recently asked me if I would like to share my story at a fundraiser they were having and to be their guest speaker.  At the time I did not feel that I was ready. Believe it or not sharing my story and speaking in front of everyone is something that terrifies me. Funny b/c sitting behind my computer, typing on this blog has become second nature and I don’t really hold much back!! I am hoping that one day soon I will be ready to speak and share my story with many more. They then asked if I would like to be interviewed for a patient profile and story. I obliged and the rest is history. Please find the link to my story below:

Happy Easter! May you all have a blessed day with the ones you love.
