Light The Night Walk Boise, Idaho

We are participating in Boise's Light the Night Walk to be held on October 4, 2007. This walk is a community involvement event and has nothing to do with Freelife or their products. Disclaimer.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk for the 2007 nation's night to pay tribute and bring hope to thousands of patients battling blood cancers and to commemorate loved ones lost. On October 4, 2007 Boise, Idaho will be having their Light The Night Walk event. This event will be coinciding with Boise's First Thursday in downtown Boise Idaho.

The Society funds lifesaving cancer research that has contributed to major advances in the treatment of blood cancers and many other types of cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and stem cell transplants that have prolonged and enhanced the lives of patients. New targeted therapies that kill cancer cells without harming normal tissue have already begun to provide drugs and procedures that are improving quality of life.

• Every five minutes someone is diagnosed with blood cancer. Every ten minutes, someone dies.
• Leukemia causes more deaths among children than any other cancer
• More than 20,000 Americans died from lymphoma in 2006
• The survival rate for myeloma is just 33 per cent
