It's been months in the making but my dads benefit is today!! I'm really nervous because Im hoping it turns out well. For those who don't already know, my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 terminal cancer. We will be having 4 live bands, a silent auction, a bake sale, and alas, the shaving of Queen Nicoles head π. If anyone is in the Minnesota area and would like to stop by you are more then welcome!! It is being held at the vfw in Cottage Grove, MN From 11 AM till 11 PM. Please keep my dad in your thoughts! π I have also been attempting to get my dad into TW but so far it has proved too confusing lol If you want to give him a little love his TW name is GaryZRT1. He can at least read his messages haha Thank you to all my TW support through these months. I π you all!! Wish me luck π

If I wasn't working if be there. You and your family will be in my prayers.

Awesome girl! Good luck I hope you raise lots of moola for your dad. Have fun and I wanna see pics on pal ππππ
-
God bless! Take pictures! We wanna see how it turns out.

Thank you all for your support and prayers! Finally finished the silent auction items.. Ugh. (3 am). Three hours of sleep (hopefully) then the set up process begins!! And I promise there shall be plenty of pictures for you all to see :) Unfortunatly, my dad had to go to the hospital yesterday because he now has an abscess in his throat :( he can't really swallow and is in pain. But he got an iv of antibiotics so I'm hoping he will be able to get a chance to make an appearance and see all the people who care about him. :)

Good luck with everything, Nic. Prayers and love. π

Also, not trying to ramble on, but I would like to acknowledge all the players of TW fighting, or that have fought cancer today. πWIZZOOπ Also, to everyone who has lost someone to this horrible disease. I know of a few people who have told me their stories and of course we all know about our lovely Sara. YOU ARE ALL AMAZING, AND STRONG! Please tell the people you hold dear to your hearts that you love them today.

Good luck with everything today Nicole, I've know you have worked long and hard to make this benefit happen. I hope your dad is able to go, him seeing all his friends and family coming together to support him will do so much more good for him then any medical treatment could.
Can't wait to see the pics!!!

Diagnosed to my dad recently as well. I'll try to stop by... But I'm gonna be stealthy if I do. Maybe I'll appear in a pic randomly! Oh and I just got a haircut, and shaved my beardstash. I look nothing like palringo now.
-
Good luck Nic, you'll be in my thoughts today darlin'. I was hoping to actually be able to make the trip today but I have to go to a memorial of one of my relatives that was fighting his ass off as well, then had a heart attack (go figure). I know the kind of planning you've put into this and the sacrifices you all made for this to come together, it's going to be more than a success for you. Let me know how it ends up later on but know I'm with you in spirit and tell your dad to keep fighting. We need every victory in that war we can get. Love ya kid, good luck.
