Hello
Everyone!
As most of you know, I am a member of the Byron-Gaines
Angels for a Cure, Relay for Life Team, and I’m asking for
your support. This is our teams 6th year participating in
the American Cancer Society’s, Shiawassee County Relay for
Life.
This year our team has two priorities, raising money and
awareness! We cannot just raise money. We must also help
people recognize the early warning signs of cancer. Please
do what you can to be knowledgeable of cancer. See your
doctor for annual physicals. Have the proper tests done as
recommended, mammograms done annually for women 40 and over,
men need to have an annual PSA blood test starting at 50,
and everyone 50 and over should be tested annually for
colorectal cancer. Not fun activities, but so very
important! These steps can help you save your life.
Please help make a difference in the fight against cancer!
At the bottom of this note is the link to my webpage as well
as the team’s webpage. Check it out! See why I relay!
Thank you for reading. Stay Healthy!!
