Tomorrow is May 1 -- the first day of Brain Tumor Awareness Month.

Please wear a gray ribbon all month and spread the word about this disease that is taking so many of our children (and adults) -- and without hope for effective treatment or a cure for so many.

If you'd like a Just One More Day gray, glow in the dark wristband, they are $3.00 each and can be ordered at http://www.justonemoreday.org/giftStore/JOMDMerchandise.html

Please join in walking for a cure -- in Minnesota:

Wall of Courage




~A message from Heide Randall


May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month

As you all know, May is Brain Tumor Awareness Month, and I wanted to make some gear to mark it as such. So, I've created designs for shirts, buttons, magnets, caps, mugs, mousepads, etc. etc. etc.

It was originally only intended for our youngest BT warriors and angels, but due to popular demand I've added designs for adult BT warriors and angels, as well.

The products are available here: http://cafepress.com/btwallofcourage ...

There is a special section featuring products with pictures of over 120 of our youngest BT warriors and angels.

There is gear available to support your: Son, Daughter, Survivors (Had/Have a Brain Tumor), Brother, Sister, Grandson, Granddaughter, Niece, Nephew, Cousin, Father, Mother, Husband, Wife, Grandmother, Grandfather, Uncle, Aunt, and Friend (boy/girl).

For those interested, proceeds from the sale of these products will be distributed among the following:
Jessica C. Randall Memorial Scholarship FundChildren's Brain Tumor Foundation (http://cbtf.org/)

The Brain Candy Project (http://braincandyproject.org/)

Jacob's Smiles (http://jacobssmiles.com/ -- site not functional yet, but I think many of you know Christine and her son, ^Jacob^.)and,

pending: Aimee's Army (http://aimeesarmy.org/)

I hope you all enjoy the gear. I figure I'll be wearing gray all year long!!!! :)
