Yesterday my friends and I had a party for a very special friend who is currently sick with cancer.  It was the culmination of a very special bake sale that I had at my place of work; a bake sale that taught me that there are a lot of very generous people in my company.  For those of you who don't know what I'm taking about, about a month ago a few very kind volunteers and I had a small bake sale in order to raise enough money to fly my sick friend out East and also to raise money for cancer research.  After only 5 hours we were able to raise close to $1000.  This is an amazing feat considering there are only around 400 people in my building and only around 40% participated in the sale. 
At last night's festivities we surprised my friend and told her the story.  She was very shocked, and was incredibly grateful for everything.  I am looking forward to seeing pictures from her trip...
