The Healing Power of Pink

It's Stacie again with a quick update. Nicole just updated also so make sure to read the previous entry.

Shortly after Nicole's diagnosis, I was contacted by one of her coworkers named Susan Stein. She wanted to show her support by putting together a book dedicated to Nicole. I personally reviewed the book before it was published and it is beautiful! Susan is a very talented photographer, and she has taken several of her photographs of pink flowers, etc. and combined them with excerpts from this blog.

Al Bly, President of US Water Services, has funded the printing of the book which has allowed all of the proceeds to go directly to Nicole's Benefit Account. More details on the book and the order form are available through the US Water Services website at http://www.uswaterservices.com/pink%20page.php. The cost is $20. The form and check can be mailed to:

Karen Danielson
2950 Xenium Lane N, Ste 120
Plymouth, MN 55441

I know Nicole, like many of us, has a difficult time accepting donations from people. So far, she has been very fortunate that insurance has covered the majority of her medical costs. Even so, she is very grateful for all the support she has been shown. The plan is to keep the money in the benefit account for future use. Nicole is also thinking about doing a breast cancer fundraising walk within the next year and may also use some of the funds towards that cause.

So, a huge thank you to Susan, Al and all the others that made this book happen! I can't wait to get my copy!
