Description

This is the youngest Survivor that attended our Relay For Life event last weekend. She is only 2.5 years old - cancer doesn't discriminate against age, sex, race, or wealth - it could happen to you, your child, or your grandchild. This terrible disease can strike anyone at any time as it did this little girl and also my wife. My wife was too sick from the chemo to attend the Relay and can only experience it through my photos. Have a nice day!

A beautiful candid capture of this little girl and thank you for drawing attention to this worthy cause, Len.

Prayers for your wife, you, all those fighting cancer and those who are survivors.

I lost my best friend, Joe, to cancer a year ago this June. Joe battled cancer three times... He would have been 70, May 5th. #4621058
