What is a Toast To Life? It is a time where those of us living with major illness at 8pm local time, no matter where you are can raise a glass (whiskey, beer, orange juice, coffee, water - whatever) and drink a toast to life.
It would be a time that we can all share
A time to say that despite it all, we're still here.
A time to say that we still doing the dance of life
A time to remember those we lost
A time to rejoice for those who have won
A time to give the finger to death.
Its a time for all suffering from any chronic illness, directly or indirectly, and family and friends as well.
Please feel free to tell anyone you know who may be ineterested in this.
Note: this is not a fund raising event, but if you want, maybe put the price of what ever you're drinking and pass that to a local charity.
So be well all.
