Team Never Give Up

Matthew's Walk to find a cure.......

Hi, my name is Nancy Vinson and I am the Team Captain of Team Never Give Up! This is our second year of walking in the Light the Night Walk as Team Never Give Up. Welcome to the official Never Give Up - Light The Night Walk home page. As most of you know, my son Matthew was diagnosed with A.L.L November 2000 and relapsed one year after completing over 3 years of chemotherapy. He has been fighting this disease for almost 6 years now.

The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide evening walk to raise awareness and funds to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.

I'm participating in the Walk on Sunday, September 24th in honor of Matthew and all individuals who are battling blood cancers. These people are the real heroes and we need your support to help accelerate cures and hope for patients and their families. Although research is responsible for increasing survival rates for these diseases, the battle is far from over.

Did you know that:

* Every five minutes, someone in this country is diagnosed with blood cancer.

* Every nine minutes, someone dies.

* Leukemia is the leading cause of disease-related death among children under age 15.

Please make a donation to support my participation in the Light The Night Walk. By doing so, we’ll both be helping save lives. I hope you'll visit my web site often. Be sure to check back frequently to see my progress. Thanks for your support!

Sincerely, Nancy Vinson, Team Captain-Team Never Give UP
