This past Saturday, I had the honor of volunteering for Camp Rainbow, which is a camp for teens with Cancer or other blood related diseases. It makes you realize how wonderful your life is when you look at these children dealing with this life threatening disease. Even more than that is the courage they have and just how up beat they are about life. For me they were nothing short of inspirational. One teen comes to mind, in particular though. Noah, who came up to me and asked, "what is this?" Churros, with chocolate sauce," I replied. When I was asked if they were any good? I told Noah that they were like heaven in his mouth. Without skipping a beat he says to me, " I will be the judge of that. And if they are, I will be back to compliment you on your cooking skills." And that is exactly what he did. A short while later he came to me and explained how amazing the Churros were and gave me a huge hug. That in and of itself made the entire day worth while.
