Light the Night Leukemia walk at UCLA for Janet

Posted by James Prompanya

Hi all. I received this e-mail from Sara Arroyo, one of Janet’s friends about a Light the Night Leukemia walk at UCLA this Sunday for Janet and other people who are fighting against Leukemia. It sounds like a great thing to do and I wish I could be there. Here’s the info

Hey James,

I am one of Janet’s friends here in L.A., my name is Sara Arroyo. I received your email from her today when i visited her today in the hospital. I visit her about twice a week and try to bring her as much good energy as possible. This Sunday Iam participating in a Leukemia walk hosted on the UCLA campus called Light the Night and I wanted to give you the info so that you may post it on her blog for anyone in the L.A. area who might be interested in being a supporter for people who suffer from Leukemia.

Here’s the summary of the info, the website with more info is at www.lightthenight.org

What: Light the Night Walk, sponsored by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
When: Sunday Sep 13th, registration opens at 4:30pm walk starts at 7pm.     The two mile walk takes about less than two hours.
Where: UCLA campus, Drake Stadium
Why: to promote and fundraise for Leukemia research, to show our support for our dear friend Janet!!
What to wear: red if you know someone who is suffering from a blood disease, white if you are a survivor, gold in memory of a person lost to these diseases

If you can also write my email, saraesc [at] ucla [dot] edu in case anyone wishes to walk along with me and my Janet poster that would be great.

Thanks, Sara
