Julia's Hail Mary Pass hasn't added a story.
Hello everyone!
Welcome to JULIA'S HAIL MARY PASS team! A note on the photo: That's me! In first grade on All Saints Day, on my front porch in Virginia, dressed as Mother Cabrini, my favorite saint. My mother made me that outfit and as you can see it was the happiest day of my life. :-)
But back to CSCLA: I am so excited to be supporting this wonderful organization that I've been a part of for over twenty-five years. Currently, I am the CEO and am honored to be part of the leadership team for an organization that has helped so many people while never asking for a single penny. How do we do that? Because of people like you. Thank you!
From support groups and counseling; classes; education; child, teen and family programs, CSCLA has helped to keep patients' and families' hearts, minds and spirits together while dealing with the trauma of cancer. Over 40,000 people will be diagnosed with cancer in Los Angeles this year, with untold family members impacted, too.
My father died of colon cancer and his death greatly affected my mother's health as his sole caregiver back in Virginia, and on my life here on the West Coast at the time. I felt guilty for not being able to help more, for not being equipped to help. I was anxious, felt out of control, and stuffed away all my feelings -- all of the things that CSCLA can help remedy. I now know that this is no way to live. If only I had had the support of a Cancer Support Community. If only my mother had had the support of a Cancer Support Community.
So, thank you, friends. I hope that you are doing well. I am so grateful for you.
With love,
Julia
P.S. The halo is not real, in case you're wondering. Thank you to my friend, Kevin Gardner, and his Photoshop skills. See him now, delivering a mean subpoena in Impeachment: American Crime Story on FX.
THANK YOU for supporting CSCLA's Cancer Support Kickoff!
