Happy Mother’s Day to all of the ‘SHE-ros’

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the
‘SHE-ros’ out there! Today not only am I celebrating all the moms but I am celebrating my 9th re-birthday and the most amazing part is that my mom is the person who was my life saving donor! Love and miss you mom and I am so very grateful everyday for the life you gave me - twice! Keep smiling!

Today is #worldcancerday2022
This year let’s work together because all of our actions matter. And if we work together we can create a healthier, brighter world without cancer.

Here are just a few ways *YOU* can make a difference and keep cancer patients smiling:
1) Order a kit from Gift of Life Marrow Registry or DKMS US to join the National Marrow Donor Registry.
2) Be a part of critical research and patient support by donating to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Shira’s cousin, Ellie, is continuing the family tradition of supporting cancer patients by raising funds for LLS. Here is her personal page: https://events.lls.org/nca/dcsoy22/emorrison

3) Reach out to the people you know who are going through treatment. COVID-19 has isolated all of us, but particularly patients with compromised immune symptoms.
Thanks for always supporting Smiles4Shira!

I can’t believe it has been 8 years since I went

I can’t believe it has been 8 years since I went into the hospital for my second and life saving transplant. I also can’t believe my daughter’s dance team are now graduating high school! They were in 4th grade then and that beautiful blanket with their drawings and writings inspired me everyday I spent in that hospital bed!!! Sending so much love to all today!!
