Our local Relay for Life event is coming up in a few weeks, and our team captain is trying to quit smoking. You’re surprised he’s a smoker? Well, I was when I first found out. He’s doesn’t look like a smoker. In fact he barely looks old enough to be of legal age.

Relay for Life is a yearly event that raises money for cancer research. It is ironic that our team captain places himself at risk of developing lung cancer by smoking. Hopefully he can find the will-power to quit for good. Of course, it could be just as easy to be at risk for lung cancer as any other cancer like mesothelioma. We do work in an older building. There’s no telling what we’re exposed to.

I’m looking forward to taking part in Relay for Life. This is my first time to walk and probably won’t stay all night but hope to make it at least past 11pm.
