As October, Breast Cancer Awareness month approaches we're hopeful of reaching our target!


Don, give yourself huge credit! You did look at your inner self, your vulnerability from current years to way back to your childhood/ teenage camping trips. We have shared with you how you have changed you views of life and how you stoically supported Kate and your lovely boys through the turbulent journey of cancer. I cannot write or express the way you do with words but reading your last blog made me immediately
think....you did that!!!! CXCaroline Dougall

Thanks to a wonderful group of supporters we've attained $2,330 of our $6,500 goal. I've had some support from folks outside of Kickstarter so the balance remaining to reach the target is around $4,000 or $220/day. That's a pretty big target but we're confident that we can surmount the challenge and get to the point where this important book can begin to make a difference to many people.

A friend suggested the other day that with October designated Breast Cancer Awareness month we might gain some support in association with that. We're pleased that during the past four years Katie and I have raised in the neighbourhood of $30,000 in support of Breast Cancer initiatives. It sure would be great to feel that we could get this book some support as well!

If you're able, every bit helps and if my existing backers can share the story with others in their network that will be a big boost.

Thanks so very much everyone.

Thanks Randy Keho. Just read your guardian angel piece. More to come re: comments. The lost in the snow on the mountaintop was SO familiar.

Great job, Don. I've shared this across my spectrum. Hopefully, all three of my followers will read and respond in kind. As a former caregiver, the message needs to be disseminated.
