1st Pasta for Prostates
Pasta for Prostates 2012 is over now! It was a lot of work and everyone is telling me I did a great job! There was a disagreeance with the band volume buy one of the guests. But it all worked out and Tyler Wayne stayed and continued the music! There were so many great raffle prizes and Happy Winners!
With the dinner we brought in $550.00 I paid the band $100 for gas. It was so worth it, they are great. If you ever get to hear 2 Country w/ Tyler Wayne you will love it. I still need to settle up with the church and will get a final number soon.
I am second guessing my fundraising ability and need to make a decesion on trying another one. It was just so difficult making everyone happy!

Our Prostate Cancer Angels!
As this month grows to a close I want to remember those Prostate Cancer Angels who have lost their battle!
When we first found out that Ray has prostate cancer I needed to find friends who understood what I was feeling. And I found friends on facebook that are very special to me. They might be Angels now but their voices still needs to be heard for the young men who are afraid to talk about having prostate cancer or being tested!

COMING IN 8 DAYS!!!!!!
In 8 days the 1st Pasta for Prostates will take place! The raffle items are growing daily and so are the pasta donations. I have had many turn downs on donations but then it seems like for every one denied it comes back two fold! I want to thank eveyone who has been helping with the whole planning stages and efforts to this fundraiser.
I am greatful to have friends and families who are just as passionate as I am with Prostate Cancer. So many people thinks it just affects the men, but that is false. We women suffer like the men do, yes we do not have a prostate but we get depression also. Some men will not talk to a support group or anyone else for that matter and then suffer in silence when there is no need to.
September is Prostate Cancer Awareness month and it should be all over the TV with psa. But how many have you seen or heard? I have heard more about breast cancer but the fact it is not breast cancer month. It is in October people we are still in September!!!! Did you know that 28,000 men with die this year of prostate cancer?
Ray has a chance of getting breast cancer from the hormone shots that he is receiving, but I am not worried about it becasue there is so much funding and help for breast cancer I know he will be taken care of. I hope unless the breast cancer funding does not cover men with breast cancer.
Sorry just venting!

The spill on Capitol Hill
On September 13th Ray, Petey and I were at The Summit to End ProstateCancer on this morning we had meetings with our Senators/Staffers.
Around 8:10am I took a spill on Capitol Hill, fell of the curb thinking it was a slope in the sidewalk. Being blind in one eye did not help at all. I go down on my ankle and heard a pop and cry like a baby. I will admit it!!
The Capitol Hill Officers come over to see if I need them to call the squad.
Me (tears flowing): No we have a meeting with Sharrod Brown at 8:30 and I am going no matter what this is too important to me!
Officers: We will get you there but you need to see the Capitol Hill nurse.
Me: After we meet with Sharrod Brown
Officers: We will have a wheel chair waiting for you at the door, we called for the shuttle to get you to the door.
Me: ok I can't miss these meeting they are more important.
At 8:30 am was our first meeting with Sharrod Brown to let him know not to cut funding for prostate cancer and to bring awareness to this disease. It is not just a men's disease it's a couple's disease.
