If you follow me on Facebook, you may already know about my granddaugher, Jen Nave, who is a 27 year old widow. She lost her husband to Leukemia. Jen promised her husband, Pat, that she would do all she could to raise awareness of Leukemia and the donor process for the bone marrow transplant.
Jen has a blog that she started before Pat passed away. Their journey to other states trying to get help. They had a baby in December (added to the four year old they already have) the blog explains everything they had to endure up to the time he died. Pat's Journey
Now she is planning fundraisers, night walks and everything that she can think of to raise the awareness. There isn't an organized walk in Billings, the closest is in Boise Idaho, but if Jen makes a good showing, they will have a walk in Billings next year.
An unofficial "Light the Night" walk will be held at 7 p.m. on Oct. 14 at North Park in Billings.To learn more about the event, to participate or to donate, search for "Billings Light the Night" on Facebook. Please share with all your friends to help raise awareness to Leukemia and bone marrow transplants.
