Wendy Harpham on Healthy Survivorship

Honor Someone on May 5, 2012

I have an idea for a beautiful way to honor special people in your life: Silver ribbons inscribed with their names.

What about loved ones you've lost? Keep their memory alive with inscribed Gold ribbons.

Why are You Here?

Yesterday I offered the opening comments for the Dallas Lymphomathon. Here's an excerpt:

Flag of Names

I'm sure to some people, my flag of names doesn't look like much. To me, the ribbons tell stories of love and loss, resilience and hope. 

Magic of Wendy's Eagles

Last spring, I sent out hundreds of emails and letters announcing the "Final Flight" of Wendy's Eagles. After raising $15,813, two of my children and many friends walked the 5K with me at the Dallas Lymphomathon to raise money for the Lymphoma Research Foundation. Then Wendy's Eagles retired.

Now spring is approaching, and Wendy's Eagles is getting ready for April 2008. What's the deal?
