This post is not Blenko related.   However, it is Blenko Project  related.  In the last seven years,  we have experienced the loss of six Blenko Project supporters to cancer.   Another 7 currently are fighting some form of cancer.

Its time - no its past time for a CURE!

Please support the American Cancer Society .   This year walk or run for the Cure.
Lymphoma Research Foundation  provides current info on blood cancer treatments.

Hilary,
We didn't tell you but we lost a sister to blood cancer this year.
She collected Blenko and Viking Glass.
We have three people in our neighborhood with cancers.
We do the AC walk / run each year and we donate to American Cancer.
Cancer affects everyone. Thank you for this post.
