Save the Date
Save the date for a two-day party in my home town, Gadsden, Alabama. It’s an opportunity to get together with friends and family as well as unite as a community. Details are still being worked out but we do know dates and places.
Day One
- DATE: Friday, September 21, 2012
- TIME: 6pm to midnight (CST)
- LOCATION: Back Forty Brewery, Gadsden, AL (backfortybeer.com)
- BANDS: To be announced
Day Two
- DATE: Saturday, September 22, 2012
- TIME: noon to 5pm (CST)
- LOCATION: Willie’s Woods, Rainbow City, AL (www.willieswoods.com)
- BANDS: To be announced
My brother-in-law, Albert Simpson, has been helping us through my cancer journey since day one. It was his idea to put together a benefit event. He’s a musician (www.albertsimpson.com) and will perform, but he ran with the idea and is growing the event into something pretty big, with several bands, a silent auction, good cookin’ and some other activities in the works.
We’re trying to raise a little money to help with travel and bills. I’ve added a DONATE page to this website to help explain more about our needs and situation.
But more importantly, the benefit is about getting to have a good time with friends old and new. It’s impossible to have one-on-one visits with all the people I want to see again so why not gather everyone together for a celebration?
More details to come soon!

Meal Train
Sign up to bring us a meal via Meal TrainMEALTRAIN WAS A VERY HELPFUL RESOURCE FOR US BUT NOW IT HAS EVOLVED INTO BRINGING US SPECIFIC UNCOOKED INGREDIENTS BECAUSE of the wtict diet we are on.This is just as valuable to us though..
A glioblastoma journey 
Sounds great. Looking forward to it and seeing all of you again. Other than donations, if I can bring or do anything, let me know.
You’re already doing it, Betty. Keeping me in your thoughts and prayers is a great help. Thanks!
very cool!
We are already doing coinontvenal treatments for GBM, but are adding the vit d in hopes of reducing further tumor growth. I know that Israel is doing a phase 2 study right now with 4000IU of vitd along with traditional radiation/chemo. Whoever authored this wrote specific percentages on tumor regression with the use of vit d. I want to know where he/she got the numbers??? Or are they just making it up?
