We have been touched so deeply by all those that have given financially to our fundraising and those who committed to pray for us through this process.
THANK YOU!

As a team , Darrel & I have raised 28%. Still a ways to go. We are confident God with make a way where there seems to be no way.

We have a few fundraising opportunities coming up soon.

MONDAY, SEPT 19 at our home 3426 Lillie Street Sachse, TX 75048
I am having a MARY KAY PAJAMA PARTY which means from 6-9PM come and go as you like. But while you are here get a facial focused on evening colors, bedtime skin care to wake up beautiful. Our daughter, Amber is a consultant and will donate 30% of sales to our Fundraising TEAM. Thank you AMBER.


Saturday Darrel and I both did 5 miles with the Team in Training. It was mostly walking with a little running. Our knees are taking the biggest beating so please pray about that. Feels like a screwdriver through the kneecap. Today we are both much better. WE CAN WALK AGAIN!!!

Saturday's run was dedicated to my dad, Tom. It was one year ago, Sept 10th that I kissed him good-bye for the last time. He was in so much pain from the Brain, Bone and Lung Cancer that it was a crazy relief to let him go. HE SUFFERS NO MORE!! We run in memory of Dad.

Vivian, Ginger's step mom is currently in remission with non-Hodskins Lymphoma. She is our Honored Hero and we run so others will not have to go through the huge battle she has fought.

June, is our other Honored Hero. She has just found out she has Chronic Lymphcytic Leukemia. She too has begun a hard battle. She would so appreciate your prayers at this time. She is our dear friends mom.

This week a couple shared about their honored hero's. When Seth spoke he said they run so no one else will have to hear the news their loved one has cancer. That's a great reason to run and to give.

Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26

Please use the link in this email to donate online quickly and securely plus learn more about my progress. You will receive a confirmation of your donation by email and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation.


Each donation helps accelerate finding a cure for leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Nearly 958,000 Americans are battling these blood cancers. I am hoping that my participation in Team In Training will help bring them hope and support.

On behalf of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, thank you very much for your support. I greatly appreciate your generosity.

Thank you,

Darrel & Ginger Brooks

P.S. I would appreciate it if you would forward this blog or email to as many people as you can to encourage them to donate as well. Thanks again.
