We have 2 Members here that have a Family member suffering from breast cancer. Her name is Roxanne Denton. She has been battling breast cancer for about four years now and after all the surgeries and treatment it has spread to her brain and there is no cure for that! Just treatment to try to make her comfortable but the quality of life just isn’t there. For the most part she suffers tremendously all of the time. She has lost all of her mobility in her legs and must be cared for 24hr a day.
Her Brother is WldWldWest,, aka Doug,, and her Cousin is coyote hunter_1,,aka Chet.
As a person that has too many chances to deal with this in my personal life as well I would like to offer a very small token of my appreciation for what Roxanne, Doug, Chet & their immediate Families are going thru right now.
All the money from the winning bidder will be sent to Doug. Doug will then send the money to the Susan G Komen for the Cure Foundation,, http://ww5.komen.org/ ,, in Roxanne’s name. I will then ship & insure the pen to the winning bidder.
This pen is Maple with the pink Breast Cancer Awareness ribbon inlayed. It too is cut from Maple. Good Luck to all the bidders and this auction will close at 12:00 Midnight EST on 12-2-2010.
