#584 Help Us Reach Next October



Champion fundraisers!
October 31

Goals
The last day of the month and I would be remiss in not plugging the most important goal for me--raising a gazillion dollars for MBC.  Don't worry, I'm not expecting that from you, but a donation to  More For Stage IV fund at the UW Carbone Cancer Center would turn this pinkish month into a color we can all benefit from—the color of hope. Hope for life-saving research. 

MBC Facts

  1. What’s the message from those of us living with metastatic breast cancer for this last day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month?
    Live Life Fully Every Day! Let’s celebrate that we survived another Pinktober! http://bit.ly/16NExkp
Supporters
plus many generous individuals too numerous to mention
who have supported me for the five years, four months I've lived with MBC.  Thank you!















Thanks for reading this month's suggestions of goals and for learning about MBC.  Please pass on the information to others.  Education is one of our greatest strengths.  Also, thanks for hanging in there with  #584 of 7777+ blog.

When given this diagnosis, you tend to seek out others in the same boat as yourself.  It has been an absolute pleasure to meet and work with Kristie Konsoer from Middleton.  Please take a moment to see what her big plans for October entail and then view her impressive TV performance.  Being such a powerful and motivated force, there is no doubt she will get her wish of $50,000 for her nifty fifty birthday.  Thank you from all of us!

Kristie's October fundraiser:

🎃 Is it the Great Pumpkin? 🎃
No, just me, but I am excited to tell you about an event to raise money for stage IV breast cancer research for UW Carbone. 
Join me at Barriques in downtown Middleton on Sunday, October 27th from 9 to 5 and vote for your favorite jack-o-lantern by making a donation. Place your donation in the jack-o-lantern you like the best. 🎃

All donations go to the More For Stage IV Fund where 100% goes to research.
Bring a friend or two! Stay and enjoy some coffee, tea, or a treat. Buy a bottle of wine for yourself or as a gift. Support Barriques whether you sit for a spell or are on the go. ☕️
I would LOVE to see you!
Barriques is located at 1901 Cayuga Street. 🍁🍂
It will be spook-tacular! 🎃
