Light The Night brings communities across Canada together for one magical evening to share stories, remember loved ones lost and pay tribute to our heroes, bringing light, love and hope to dispel the darkness of blood cancers.

I am taking the first step and showing my support.

Last October the unthinkable happened. One of my dear high school friends was diagnosed with ALL. In the blink of an eye from diagnosis she was taken from all who loved her in a few short weeks.

I have known Carol since we were sixteen years old. For years, a group of 6 of us would get together in different locations to reminisce, catch up , share stories of our families and share good food, good wine and lots and lots of laughs.

I am joining Carol's CUREsaders to help put an end to blood cancer and to make sure someone else's girlfriend's weekend isn't missing a smile the next time they get together.
