Sometimes you hear things ... about old friends ... and your heart just sinks. And you feel scared knowing the same thing could happen to you or someone you love. And you're a better husband and father that day.
Yesterday was one of those days for me. Yesterday was when I heard about Lisa Calderwood, a friend from when we lived in Baltimore, and how she recently had a baseball-sized tumor removed from near her brain. I also heard that she and her husband, Cody, now have four beautiful kids. And finally, I just now read about the efforts to help them pay for the astronomical medical costs that are piling up. And I knew I needed to write this post.
Do what you can, even if what you can do is just a note of encouragement. Other ways to help include participating in a 5K run, donating items to auction or holding your own fundraiser. Let's run together with Lisa.
