"Everyone knows someone with cancer. By walking in light the night I am helping all those who have to suffer with this horrible disease. I am more than happy to help in any may that I can"
-Russ Dean, Booz Allen Hamilton- Scholten
As everyone reading this may know already, I lost my son Johnny Bodnar to cancer just five days before his 3rd birthday. Words can never explain the feeling of losing a child. I dont want to see anymore children die from this disease, Thats why my entire family goes to every event and donate anything we can to help those children. Just being there to support helps these children. It really means alot to them to see so many people out there supporting them. Below are links where you can donate, join a team, and get more information about the Light The Night walk.

The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide walk to raise awareness and funds to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
These people are the real heroes, and we need your support to help accelerate cures and give hope to 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 ten minutes, someone loses the fight.
Leukemia causes more deaths than any other cancer among children.
Lymphomas are the most common blood cancers.
The myeloma survival rate is only 32 percent.
