The Survivor Dodgeball Charity weekend raised money this year to go to breast cancer research in honor of Jen Lyon from Survivor: Palau. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and is still battling it. It’s now in stage 4 and in her bones. But if you could meet her, you would know that with her bright and sparkling smile and her positive outlook she can beat it if anyone can. She is truly a wonderful spirit and my thoughts and prayers will continue to be with her. And she has promised to keep me updated on her progress so I can let you know too.
And her fellow Palau tribemate, Katie Gallagher is also very sick at the moment. She has congestive heart failure. She too has a positive attitude and a strong outlook. My thoughts are with her too.
The two were there for moral support last weekend, but neither was able to compete. Not a problem, though. They both brought their warmth and their great personalities and the weekend was so much better for having them there. I truly like them both very much and look forward to seeing them both at many future events.
