Excerpt from blog On another note, Lisa had a brush with fame tonight. She got to join some other kids from her Kids Kicking Cancer karate class to film a public service announcement with Gerard Butler. While he's not Miley Cyrus or Demi Moore -the stars that the kids got to shoot the announcement with on Sunday while we were out of town:(- Gerard was very nice and spent a lot of time with the kids before and after the shooting. I've attached an amatuer clip I took from my phone....it's a bit long, but the whole process was a lot longer! The film Gerard is in town shooting got behind schedule so we waited over an hour for him to get done with that. We did get to peak behind the scenes and all the crew was very nice. Once Gerard was done filming for the day, they shot the public service announcement. There were many retakes and we were snapping pictures like crazy...those will be on shutterfly soon. Lisa, being bald and toothless, got the front and center spot right on his lap. It was very cool! Lisa was awesome and very much the professional sitter. We are so proud of her. Video is posted and more of the blog entry is posterd here: loveyoulisa.blogspot.com/2010/08/brush-with-fame.html

Wonderful. I've known children who have survived - but a program like this is quite amazing - empowering!
I was a teenager going through this battle as well - would have been awesome to have such a program north of the border - I sent a message inquiring of expansion....always wanted to get into martial arts!

this is the kind of side ordinary people don't get to see. Even I ,who adore the guy, didn't knew about this. Anyway, the heroes here are the kids. kuddos to them. strength and hope to their parents. Gerard, I don't know if he'll ever make a great husband, but he will be an amazing dad. that I am sure.
