New Survivor Story

DONNA'S STORY

In 2007 I was in an airplane accident that saved my life. After being life flighted, they did a CT of the abdomen which showed a 13cm mass on my kidney. Two months later, I had my nephrectomy. Then I started a support group for Renal Cancer patients. And now I am chairman of my community's Relay For Life. I am determined that we will beat cancer!

Rita's Party

Last night we honored and remembered Rita by visited her at the cemetary and dinner at one of her favorite restaurants in St. Peter. It was fun to remember and share "Rita stories!" There is an empty spot at the store without her and hard to believe it has been a year without her.
