Gary Courtney Lung Cancer Awareness Bracelets

Donations to the Gary Courtney Lung Cancer Awareness Bracelets Campaign go to the American Cancer Society (under lung cancer)

Gary Courtney is my daughter-in-law's, April Courtney Barrett (pictured with Gary) father. His battle has been long, painful and finally rewarding. Gary's cancer has been responding after several chemotherapy and radiation treatments. We know our warrior Gary will continue to fight this battle for his wife Sheila, children April, Carrie Reed, and Jason Courtney. His grandchildren, friends, and family. I am honored to be a small part of this campaign.

My birthday wish came true the surgery was a success he can talk again but the Dr doesn't want him to talk for the next two days because of the surgery. I just came from my parent’s house and as we were leaving I gave My dad a hug and in my ear he said Happy Birthday April I love you, I started crying. This is been the best birthday ever, getting to hear my dad's voice again was the best birthday gift ever smile emoticon thank you so much to everyone who has been praying for my dad THANK YOU. Now we continue praying that his cancer goes away.
