MarionGood morning! Here’s a follow up to our bowling fundraiser on April 14:
We made $1046 through our First Giving page.
http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/susancrago/somethingforsueWe received checks totaling $1350.
I just wrote a check to the CC Foundation for $4331.11 for a grand total of:
$6727.11
My team was wonderful and we ended up with 141 bowlers and numerous people who just showed up to support us, including my doctor and her family!
We hope to be able to make it an annual event.
Thank you,
SueFABULOUS NEWS SUE — Ron is right behind you with 4 1/2 years out cancer free. Hoping and praying that lots of others will be joining us.
Sue…Sounds like you organized a spectacular event with exceptional results. Stay well, dear Sue. You are an inspiration to all.

MarionYEA-Susie! We need more long term postings on here, keep posting the great news!
Lots of prayers for all-CathyWOW! Sue, that is totally over the moon! Good job and very exciting outcome! You really bowl ue over!

Thank you all for such great wishes!!! I feel great. No real health issues with my liver. I have to be careful with acetaminiphin (sp?) and can’t take ibuprofen (because of my kidneys) so I do live with pain but it has nothing to do with my liver. My bloodwork is all normal where my liver is concerned. I have no inflammation or liver pain, just a little discomfort which I figure must be scar tissue, and some acid reflux. My scans don’t seem to cause any questions to the docs and my doc has, in fact, released me! She said I was welcome to come back in a year, or two years, whatever I felt comfortable with. Dianne, feel free to ask me anything!
Our fundraiser was a HUGE success!!! We had 141 bowlers and about 30 others who just dropped by to wish us well and to have a good time! And, boy, did we have a good time!!! We hoped to make $3000 for CC.org and came in around $6000!!!! That includes money from the First Giving Site, silent auction, 50/50 raffle and donations!
I am amazed at the amount of support we have had and look forward to sending the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation a check for over $4500! (Over $1500 has been donated via First Giving and sent directly to CC.org.)
It was a great event and hopefully we will be able to do it again next year!
Hugs,
SueSue…your news is great on all fronts – perfect scan and a terrific fundraiser in the making. Have tons of fun bowling for a great cause.
At one point, I am sure we will have the opportunity to meet again in person.
Hugs are coming your way,
Marion
