Wow, what a weekend

Let me start by thanking ALL the Crofts and Davis Family for hosting this AWESOME event. It was WAY better than Travis and i could have ever dreamed. We want to thank the 360 runners who came out and participated, the friends and family who were with us Saturday night and everyone else who couldn't make it for all their love, support, and kind words. We raised $7,000 at the race, $4,700 Saturday night, and the rest were from donations with a grand total of $40,000. Not to mention more keeps coming in. Can you even believe it? My husband doesn't show emotions that often, but I think this news brought the entire place to tears. I cant tell you how many people came up to us and said "you don't know me, but ..." I even had a woman who only heard about me thru the paper and wanted to offer her help with airline tickets to get us to Chicago. We are so blessed to have such incredible friends, loving families and a community who really cares. We have a thousand pictures that we will post on a website soon for all to see and there should be another article about Saturday in the Sandy Springs Reporter. I will post the website address when it comes out. Thank you all so so much and as Sammy said, "mommy i cant believe all these people are here for us, I feel like a princess"

One last thing, we got some bad news Friday that my meds are now not working. We are back for more tests (Brain scan, CT scan, ECO) and a trip to Chicago sooner than we had planned. My doctor here doesn't like what she is seeing because i am "blowing" thru all the meds to fast. They all seem to work in the beginning, but my cancer is out smarting the meds faster than she ever imagined. We saw another doctor this morning for a possible trial that might be a great fit for me. We will keep you all posted, if you could all just keep up the prayers.

Love you all,
Laura
