My little cousin Noelle... please read
As you may or may not know, my little cousin Noelle, my sweetie-pie, has been diagnosed with an Auto-Immune disease called Dermatomyositis. It is extremely rare, and there is no cure for it at this time.
In the hopes of raising awareness and funds, the cure JM Foundation is having a marathon in California at the beginning of the year. Noelle, her sister Amanda, and their parents, my aunt and uncle, Nancy and Steve are all planning on going and volunteering at the event. They have set up a webpage to try and help raise money for this cause:
Noelle's Fundraising Page
Please just take a peek and read their story, if you would. I would never ask anyone to sponsor Noelle, but if you chose to, it would be more than appreciated!!!
We all thank you, and wish you a very happy and healthy holiday!![]()

And here is a pic from our wedding - you can see how the Prednisone has affected her... she is still so beautiful though:
