"Shrink That Tumor" by Catoctin Caregivers

NO WHERE, absolutely, positively NO WHERE, on the face of this green earth, are there people that care more than what I have as coworkers, friends and family at Catoctin Elementary School in Leesburg, Virginia!

The definition of Caregivers according to the American Cancer Society Relay For Life:
Caregivers are people who give their time, love and support to friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers who are facing cancer. Caregivers play an important role. Cancer reaches far beyond the person diagnosed.

Please take the time to watch this video clip. From it, you will be able to experience what I receive each and every day from Catoctin Elementary. You will be able to see why I want more than anything in the world to go back to work. Most people want to stay home, but NOT ME! I want to be able to be back doing what I love best -- teaching -- and being with the people that I love the most.

Sung to the tune of Shake Your Booty

[Intro]  32 beats

Just gotta say it... some of us must love you very, VERY much to get on camera and do THAT! Just for you, Sharon. Just for you!

Good luck with your first day of shrinking tomorrow!

I'm glad you enjoyed YOUR special presentation. Some of us really have no dancing ability at all (and I was reminded of this as I noticed I kept looking at everyone else because I couldn't remember what to do)! Shrink that Tumor might be the next big hit and it's very catchy (still singing it in my head)! Happy SHRINKING! That tumor doesn't stand a chance.

Shrink, shrink, shrink....

Sharon it is obvious that I know just where to stand .......what a talented group of loving people we are....Guess the LOVE might outshine the talent part but all together we did TRY to look like something. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and we love you very much. I don't think that there will be many of us that can erase that tune very soon....shrink away Sharon....shrink away!!!!!!!!!!!
