There is an old Japanese tradition that 1,000 origami paper cranes will bring good luck. Cranes for Cancer's mission is to provide baskets or vases of 1,000 cranes to cancer patients. The 1000 cranes bring hope and uplift spirits. We've been doing this for about 18 years, but we NEED HELP! You can help by: 1) Donating money for supplies 2) Donating origami paper 3) FOLDING CRANES.

If you know of a person who is in need of 1,000 origami paper cranes, please send an e-mail and we will send your dear friend or family member 1,000 paper cranes of hope and healing.

An example for all of us




Liz got her cranes last week. She loves them too. I met her for the first time last week. She is such a lovely young woman. She looks fantastic and is in good spirits. Only one more month of chemo to go! Liz is an example of how cancer can strike anyone at any time. She is my age and very healthy, and a doctor to boot. Luckily they caught it early. We are wishing you the best Liz!

Oh, and thank you for the quote of the day - I LOVE it:

"I wake up every morning and look at myself in the mirror and say 'Everybody wishes they could look like me'"

You're HOT girl. David .... watch out!
