Our local Relay for Life takes place in Orbost over the weekend. Tomorrow at 12pm my husband and I will be involved in the Survivor walk, after which we have been invited to a special survivor lunch. Later in the day, I've had the privilege of being invited to light a candle in the Twilight Candle ceremony. They will be lighting a past, present, and a future candle, then there will be a twilight walk to follow. I've been asked to light the present candle and say a couple of lines for the ceremony. For the twilight walk, people can purchase a brown paper bag where they can write a dedication to a loved one, past, presently being treated and a survivor. The bags are anchored with sand in them, and a candle lit, and these are placed around the oval for people to read on the twilight walk. I will be putting in a bag for my brother Les, who passed away 4 years ago with stomach cancer. I will think of you all and send out some positive wishes for you all along my walk. Love and cuddles to you all, Trace ????????
