About the Victory Lap
Who hasn’t been affected by cancer? It seems like almost everyone has a loved one or a friend who has been touched by this disease. Every coin has two sides, it’s time to find something from this experience other than fear and trauma; a good beginning is in the camaraderie, all oppressing forces keep their victims strategicaly divided because there is strenth in numbers and produtive ideas in group thought. Our greatest hope is to give hope.
The Victory Lap is an event to raise awareness about cancer, to share success stories, to offer a shoulder for the tradedies, and salute our loved ones who have fallen to this terrible disease.
I was recently asked what a person does after they read this site, got to admit I have been a bit lax in keeping up fresh ideas here but I have one now! This site no longer belongs to me; I am just the moderator and am open to new input.
The Victory Lap is more than just a trip around the world, this is a world class event in which we intend to unite and help our brothers & sisters in need; this is an event through which we can stand united against the monster and push it back into the abyss; this is an event through which we can actually make a difference and leave this world a better place than we found it.
I would like to begin to organize the community which this benefit is going to unify and actually communicate with you rather than just post cool new happenings so we are going to start out with a newsletter. This will have information oriented on sailing and getting well & staying there, and becoming unified. Please send email with newsletter in the subject line. I will be personally handling this aspect so everyone’s email will be held in confidence (been a spam target myself, it’s no fun) And if you wish we would love to add as many names to the page that displays our community as possible, let’s show the world our numbers!
Donations are not mandatory to recieve newsletter but appreciated.
We will also be offering alternative tips and complimentary treatments in dealing with cancer from successful experiences; remember complimentary means to assist rather than replace. Doctors are absolutely necessary when we are sick however another point of view is also an important consideration.
Let’s stand together and turn something tragic into something magic, together we can turn the tables and come out winners. Stand up and shout “We are still here!!” and listen to all the echoes.
