National Cancer Suvivors Day

Today is National Cancer Survivors Day.  A day to celebrate those who have fought cancer, those who have lost their battle, those who have waged the war on this deadly disease and pretty much anyone who has been affected by it.  When you think about it in those terms, today is a day to be…

Everyone is pretty much the same…

I blog, I tweet, I stumble, I Pin and I Facebook.  I spend hours 'connecting' with the world through my computer.  Friends from yesteryear as well as new ones, the internet has given people an international audience to promote causes, share lives, seek new friendships and reconnect with old ones.  The things I write about have…

Pediatric Cancer Awareness

September is almost over and with it the hope that pediatric cancer awareness month would get national attention and major support.  Cancer is a terrible disease no matter who the victim is young or old, but even more so for a child.  The battle to beat cancer and survive becomes paramount when kids should be enjoying childhood…

I Tweet…..

I pretend to be tech savvy and part of the "new generation" of social media gurus.  I have a page on Facebook, an account on Linked In, a blog on WordPress, and I tweet on Twitter.  Maybe I am a bit more over the top than the average person about this, but the concept of networking has…

Facebook is a powerful social networking tool and what started out as something for the younger generation has quickly turned into a social networking site for everyone.  It is believed that the internet has taken away much of the personal contact people once shared and the anonymity of it makes for some serious concerns as much of the…
