Relay Rally Weekend with American Cancer Society
Support the American Cancer Society this weekend with Relay For Life of the Mid-Valley and OHSU as they promote upcoming events and raise awareness about current cancer research and treatments.
At the age of 90, our dad was given a fatal diagnosis of cancer and sent home with a bag of medications. Our hopes to spend quality time with him during his last days were dampened by the knowledge that while his medication would help with pain management, it would also keep him bed-ridden. Our family searched for an option that would allow our dad to not only live the rest of his days free from pain but also to spend his last days doing what he loved: being an active member of our family farm. We were provided an extra 42 days with dad. His only goal was to live through the tulip festival that year, which he did with pride.
The American Cancer Society holds near and dear to our hearts. For our dad and other family members including our sister in law Vicki Iverson and close friends.
Admission required to take part in this event.
