Let's band together to help a Navy Veteran and a wonderful man, Joe Valerio fight Hodgkins disease.

My childhood friend, Christina's father Joe Valerio was recently diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkins Disease, a type of Lymphatic Cancer. It has spread from his groin area to under his intestines and stomach. The doctor's say at this point it is curable but he needs Chemotherapy and Radiation for at least 6 months or more. He has been going through a lot with the cancer alone and recently lost his job. He is not the type to ask anyone for anything, but would go out of his way to help you if you needed it. We are asking for you to do the same for him. Anything helps.

Hugs for Helping Joe fight Hodgkins.

    "Joe - You have a lot of well wishers out here. (Dave Osborne is a friend of mine since 2003) I've faced and beaten Cancer myself 10 years ago (Melanoma detected early). Just want to share the positive thoughts and some things that helped me. Laugh and sing and be with loved ones to get your immune system boosted as much as you can. If you have access to the internet - Just a reminder that you can watch Youtube.com for some awesome free comedy & thought provoking entertainment that will keep you in "stitches" (or hopefully out of them). Best wishes on your road to recovery! Sue Lin Lange"
