LIVESTRONG Day 2006

I'm very excited to report that I will be attending the Lance Armstrong Foundation's LIVESTRONG Day event in Washington, D.C. from May 15-17, 2006! Two representatives from each state will receive a day of advocacy training on how to make an impact on Capitol Hill and in our own communities, and then meet with our elected officials and/or their staffs. This will be a great opportunity to raise the visibility of cancer survivorship issues, and I look forward to meeting old and new friends there.

May 15 also happens to be my 42nd birthday. As you'll recall from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, "42" is the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything. Coincidence? I don't think so. :-)
