PMC Weekend!

Prior to PMC weekend we were lucky enough to be visited by Bethany!! Isabelle had an unexpected fabulous time with Bethany as she played, laughed and cuddled with Bethany!! We will miss her and the girls but will see them soon!!

Isabelle and Mary also had a chance to visit with Andrea. She flew in from Italy and we were able to catch up on Saturday. It was great to see you. We miss you !!

Another PMC weekend is in the books. They all continue to be special in their own way and this year was no different. A special thanks to Julie's parents for hosting us this weekend (sure beats a tent!) especially when the winds and the rains blow through Bourne!

PMC weekend is special to our family for many reasons.

From George's perspective: It is a weekend of recollection as well as helping to insure that Isabelle will never know what the word 'cancer' means personally. It is always so amazing and inspiring to see the thousands of people who are all touched by this disease unite for a common cause each weekend in August. Knowing that such powerful expressions can be made is a testament to the dedication of all those who participate. A special thanks to my "right hand girl (Mary)" as she is really the brains behind the brawn and the reason why this weekend happens logistically!!

From Mary's perspective: Every year I take away something new and different from PMC weekend. George and I were laughing during the long car ride home from Ptown, about how each year that we have been involved in the PMC together has been so different. The first year that I was involved in the PMC, George and I were dating. Year 2 we were engaged. Year 3, we were married. Year 4 I was VERY pregnant, and this year we welcomed our beautiful daughter into do the world of the PMC. We are so lucky to have this special event to look forward to every year because there are some people that we only see at the PMC. And I look forward to seeing those people and thanking them for doing the ride. George is "Living Proof" that the funds raised do save lives. And the fact that George survived cancer when he was young means the world to me. George is the love of my life and without him there would be no Isabelle. What makes me love George even more is the fact that he does the PMC ever year and he gives back to the people that saved his life. That is what makes Isabelle and I so proud of George (Daddy). We are all exhausted at the end of this physical and emotional weekend. But we all have smiles on our faces because we are happy to be healthy and together. Thank you to everyone that gave donations to George !

One of our longer posts but for good reason! Everyone have a great week and we will see you back here next week :-)
