Rochester Red Wings Game - Pluta Cancer Center




I am so excited!


On Sunday, May 11th - Mother's Day, there is a Rochester Red Wings Game that is sponsored by Pluta Cancer Center. The players will be wearing special pink jersey's in honor of breast cancer awareness and these jersey's will be auctioned off at the game with the proceeds going to Pluta Cancer Center.

Yesterday, the Pluta social worker, Sue Vetter, asked me if I would be interested in throwing out the FIRST PITCH at this very special game! I cannot tell you how thrilled I am to do this! Given everything I had to go through in the past year - the people who work at Pluta made the process so much easier! I cannot speak more highly of the nurses, doctors and staff at Pluta. This is such an honor for me!
If you are in Rochester that day - please join in the fun and come to the game.

If you are out of town - there will be plenty of pictures and video to share!

Now - I am off to the ball diamond at the local park to practice pitching a baseball! I don't want to make a fool of myself!

Christy. If there was any way I could be there, please know I would. That day, I will have just returned for Alberta to Mission Viejo. This is sooooo neat that you were selected. I am so proud of all you have become. Also know that I will pray that your pitch gets to cross the plate, and maybe a strike. Wow, I can hear the cheers now. Love always, your Dad
