ON THE WAVES OF HOPE - PHASE 2
I initially created this campaign to offset the cost of my taking a short unpaid leave of absence -- from my job at Amazon -- to support and aid however I could my fiancé LB in her fight against metastatic breast cancer, a fight that has been going on since she was diagnosed in 2015.
PHASE 1 of this campaign enabled me to travel to North Carolina to be with her during October 2018.
LB handles her situation with a fierce optimism and this is expressed and exemplified by her preparing an unconventional cancer testimonial.
For her cancer testimonial she's fashioned one of musical delivery. She's taking what is a very emotional, powerful experience and -- through collaboration with a local musician, Mr. Byron Pink and myself -- is making it happen. The ball really started rolling in May of 2018 and most recently we presented 3 songs at the inaugural Making Strides Cancer Walk at the Town Commons in Greenville North Carolina, pictured below.
PHASE 2 of the On the Waves of Hope Campaign is directed at offsetting the costs of this musical production.
Her 11 song musical piece we see to be her legacy in regard to cancer, communicating a more complex experience through its use of the musical format. It takes what can be a sad, even grim subject and transforms it ultimately into a message of hope, optimism and resolve.
Here is an example drawn from her music testimony which she has titled "On the Waves of Hope".
I happened to write this song from the point of view of the Caregiver. This is a video I made where I detail a bit about the process of writing the song as well as perform it.
Today is 11/12/18 and I have just begun to transform this campaign into PHASE 2. More videos and information shall be provided.
Thank you so very very much for taking the time to consider aiding my campaign and our cause.
With great sincerity,
Mark Sunshine
