Every year after Joedance I send personal notes thanking everyone who donated their time and money to raise awareness for rare and complex cancers. And every year I write with blurred vision of tears in my eyes. I get the zip codes wrong, the 9's look like 8's, I write and rewrite the cards till I think they are right for those who have sent money, those who gave their time and talent to make Joedance a success. These cards are sent to so many people that knew Joe's journey and to those who have just learned of our heartbreak. I as write these notes the tension that filled my shoulders preceding Joedance starts to lessen, replacing it with your love and willingness to gather every year for Joedance to remember a son and a brother.
