 Dear Friends, 

      

    Did you know that according to the American Association for Cancer Research 2013 progress report, cancer may soon become the No. 1 disease-related killer of Americans, outpacing heart disease?

This information highlights the importance of funding cancer research and providing care programs for patients and their families. 
     In 2012, there were more than 13.7 million cancer warriors living in the United States and more than 1.6 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer this year. this is why cancer research and supporting the cancer warriors is a key part of My Blue Dots.
     Our Fantasy Ball this year will support both research as well as the cancer warriors and we look forward to having you join with us in the fight to cure cancer in our lifetime.

 

           Until Next Time... 
                              
Sue

Our Fantasy Ball

 

Our fantasy is to cure cancer in our lifetime

And we hope that's your fantasy too,

So we are hosting a Fantasy Ball

And we are inviting you.

 

There will be no fancy party to go to,

No dressing up you'll have to do,

You can just stay home or go out

But you can make our fantasy come true.

 

You can join us in supporting cancer research

As well as what the cancer warriors go through.

That has been our mission each year

And here are things we're continuing to do.

 

Dr. Koong is internationally known for his research

And continues doing outstanding work,

Stem cell research is now exploding and

It has given cancer research a real perk.

 

We give pins to honor those cancer warriors

And it shows how Stanford works as a team.

We're encouraging young students to pursue science

So cancer will no longer be seen.

 

A children's book we're working on

To touch children's heart and soul.

My Blue Dots Societies will soon be starting

These are just some of our goals.

 

So we hope you'll join us in our cause

For working together our fantasy will come true.

We thank you, in advance, for your donation,

For we could not do these things without you.
