NYC Search Marketers’ Party During SMX to Beat Lymphoma
By dana | October 7, 2007
This is my first “meme.” I’ve never been too sure about them in general. But as I’ve been tagged for a very worthy one by a great new blogging friend, I thought this one was necessary. I don’t think I could do his post justice by adding too much of my own rhetoric, but this is a subject that is near and dear to my heart, as I’m sure it has affected all of us in one way or another.
So I give you the following excerpt from Marty at AimClear announcing a great event and sharing a bit of his story:
2 years ago I had one hell of a fight on my hands. 7 months of intensive chemo, 3 weeks of radiation, and 18 months later I remain in “first partial remission” with a good prognosis for long term survival. I’m one of the lucky ones. Please help publicize this event by attending, donating, or passing along meme link love. THANK YOU!
NYC Search Marketers’ Party During SMX to Beat Lymphoma
It’s not often I have a legitimate reason to talk about cancer survival in our search marketing blog. However, Next week Internet Marketers of New York (IMNY) is sponsoring a charity event to benefit The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The bash is sponsored by Best of The Web and SMX Social Media attendees have specifically been invited. Since aimClear will be covering SMX Social Media, I’ve changed my flight reservations in order to attend. The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, sponsors of Light the Night, was a critical informational resource and support structure for me and my family. Now it’s time to give back.Link Love is as Good as Money! Please Circulate the Event URL by linking to http://www.im-ny.org/events.html and tag 3 other bloggers with outbound links.
He’s asked that we pass along the message, so I wanted to do my part. So here goes: YC, Kate, Maura and Edward.
