Subject: volunteer work??

Monday will be #34 and my last radiation. Wow how time fliys when you're having fun!! Anyway, I must say that I was raised in a pretty religous home, then as an adult decided religion was no longer my thing. Not that I became a bad guy or anything, just wasn't as devout as I was as a kid. Probably a pretty typical American adult. Still believed in God, tried to do the right things, just not (pardon the term) "a holy roller". It's funny what brings people back to God. There are many things, and one certainly is for many people what we all are going through. I now pray every morning for members of my family, people I know, and even for all the people hurting on this board.

I was a very fortunate business man. I hade lots of money and at age 47 (4 years ago) a big Fortune 500 compnay offerred me a bunch of more money to buy me out. I couldn't pass it up. So, for the most part, I'm retired. I promised God that when I recover I will do more to help those cancer patients that need help. We've all seen them. Yes, it is easy to write the check to help (and I will). But I want to do more physically. I've never been much of a volunteer guy. Give me some ideas? What should I do? Just walk into a cancer center and say put me to work? I want to use my time in the best possible fashion but there are only so many hours. Looking for suggestions to pick from.

I'm a very blessed man (cancer and all) and need to give back. Help me out people. Shoot me some volunteer ideas.

Thanks,

Rick
