Tony Feller Fund

Today I'm writing to you not to post new pics of Boston or what I've been doing but more for a cause...
One of my coworkers from Indianapolis which became a good friend at work has been battling cancer for 5 years. If you haven't read his story please go over to http://tonyfellerfund.blogspot.com and read what he and his family has been going through in his battle. Tony has been very determined to battle this disease and help to find a cure for it. He has went through treatments all over the world. He really has become an inspiration to never give up the fight and hope.
Crystal, his wife, has been blogging these days because Tony has become weak and has been sleeping most of his time now. So you can see how she has been dealing with it as well...
So, I'm writing for a few of reasons.
First: For those of you living in Indy, all of my friends that may want a night out tomorrow (Sept. 10), to hear some great music by Mike and Joe (Butler people I know you love them....a small fact is that these guys were fraternity brothers of Tony at IU) and for a great cause, consider going over to Mudsocks Bar and Grill in Noblesville as they are hosting the 2nd Feller Treatment Fund Cancer Benefit from 7pm-11pm.
Second: If you can't make the benefit, take a look at this ebay website: http://members.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=gemi
There are a lot of great items in there, especially if you're looking for a great gift for dad or your husband....
Third: If you get the Indy channels...remembering that all of my readers do not live in the Indy vicinity, but if you do and if you can tune in, FOX 59 is airing Tony's story tomorrow morning, they think around 8:40 am est. They have interviewed him and his family about their personal story and I believe how they have been so public about sharing their struggles.
Fourth: Please just keep Tony and family in your thoughts and prayers. I know they are just one family struggling with this disease everyday. Tony really has been an advocate to find a cure for cancer and believes that one day soon it will happen to help every other family out there fighting it.

Thanks for your time,
Kristina

P.S. Lovely

I just realized I forgot to include this in my posting on Sunday.  MamaLouise was kind enough to award me with "Lovely" tag on her last posting. So I'm going to pass along to a couple people, mainly b/c I don't have 15 new bloggers other than people she mentioned. 

I do encourage you to visit two blogs:
1) Make sure you visit The Allen Family blog and check out beautiful Olivia. I've yet to meet her, but I'm very anxious for that day to come. 
2) To you all Butler folks, the Brevings have welcomed another baby to the family as of yesterday, Sutton Jae. All are healthy and happy. Congrats Morgan on a baby sister!

Jordan (sorry, couldn't help it)- you're tagged. :)

Mmmm, that might sum it up.   

hearts,
