Scarlett Callahan's Story

As I approach the 5th anniversary of my remission date and transplant date, I hope to be called 'cured' from Acute Myeloid Leukemia. 

In preparation (and hopefully celebration), I will be committing to writing and sharing a poem each day for 26 days, beginning on August 1st. Writing has been an integral piece of my well-being, during and following treatment. 

For my Create-A-Thon, I will challenge myself to spend time writing *daily*  for 26 days, in hopes of forming a long-term habit! This edge will also encourage me to be accountable for sharing my writing each day, which is something I have always been uncomfortable doing. 

I hope you will consider pledging a donation! For every donation of $26 or more, I will print and send a frame-ready poem adorned with pressed flowers, like the one pictured! Thank you for supporting my personal mission to heal and celebrate wellness through poetry, and Cactus Cancer Society's mission to end isolation amongst young adults facing cancer. We are stronger together!
