I don’t think it’s necessary for me to inform the media whenever I contribute to charity. And you’re right, Chris Furbert, Marc Bean, and I (and a few others) get doused with venom on a daily basis from the likes of “Truth is killing me” and Noel Ashford. “And still I rise!”

There has been billions of dollars given to cancer research and we’ve never had an update yet!!!!but money continues to roll in that direction without accountability… I would like to know more about these new words they come up with to discribe a certain condition of the body, our largest organ! The governor is not impressive taking a cold bucket of ice in this Bermuda heat. plz.. just tell us more information about who, what where when why and how of the situation.
