Kristen Michelle Webb was a dear friend to many. She was a close friend of my best friend Nicole and she will be missed for all the smiles she brought to those around her. Kristen was a diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma in July of 2008 at the age of 18. She was a bright and positive woman who worked hard for not just herself but for those in her community and for young people who were in need of financial support in treatment of Hodgkin Lymphoma, Breast Cancer, and Ovarian Cancer. She also organize bone marrow drives to raise awareness of the lack of African American and other minorities on the donor list.

On August 4, 2010, Kristen's fight came to an end and she was called home by her lord. Please help continue on her work by sharing her website that was recently established to spread her word. Thank you. :)

If she was important enough to have a website, then most likely.

Surprisingly, no!

Also, the organization's title is hugely misleading. Kristen's F.I.G.H.T. (Faith In God's Healing Touch) does not appear to rely on God's Healing Touch so much as reseach and conventional presription drugs.

I guess Kristen's F.I.G.P.C. (Faith In Giant Pharmaceutical Corporations) didn't have the same ring to it.

Its not about religion or faith. The site is there to tell her story and the organization she formed to help those in financial need to cover the cost of treatment in cancer and to raise scholarships for those fighting cancer. It about helping those who need help in their fight against cancer. She isn't anyone special. Just someone who was close to a lot of people and did what she could while she was with us. :)

I think you should get a Toyota Prius and choose Japanese as your language.

What could be more useful than educating someone before they die? It's not like you could spend that money on someone who will actually benefit from it! **** that!

Well, really, everyone is entitled to an education. I mean, how will they know how to manage their retirement funds?

On a side note, I did rate the OP up. Cancer is a horrible disease that claims too many lives. My condolences to the family.

If I was a younger person, fighting cancer and trying to remain hopeful for my success and future life, I'd probably appreciate some help going to school while my family's money is getting funneled towards chemotherapy and doctor's bills.

I'm afraid whatever stereotyping your trying to jab at went over my head. I can't think of anything that deals with religion , cancer, prius, Japanese, and a credit card. Unless your telling me I should become a cute, anime, catholic school girl who now sees ghost after dealing with the tragic loss of her little sister to cancer and is now on a quest to find the magical cards that put the ghost of her town to rest before the big evil hell monster comes to eat them all. but thats just a guess...

That's exactly what she's telling you and I think you should try it too. I don't want to hear from you again unless you're bringing me back a story of how successful you were at this new endeavor.

I have returned! The story i have to tell is one of heroic deeds! I made my to japan to study the language of the hell demon, japanese, and to train with an old kung-fu master who wore nothing but white, he did have a pizza stain on his robe but who would point out such a minuscule imperfection when compared to his legendary might! The months of hard training dragged on for what seemed like centuries. I was not prepared for the blood that would be spilled from my fingers as they wrote essay after essay in japanese. Learning to speak in the demon tongue proved even more of a up-hill battle than my daily routine of breaking all my bones before training kung-fu with master whiterobe.

Finally my day of graduation had come! I was prepared to read the ancient text of a japanese high school diploma with my now shapely body of massive pecs and not six but NINE abdominal muscles! So with a pat on the back from master whiterobe and the mystical staff of cardfinding, I set out on my journey to put an end to the whiney *** ghost of japan before they would wake up the horrific hell demon! I had also learned to important skill of picking up rice, grain by grain, with my bare buttocks!

The war against the sad and depressing ghost of japan was a battle barely won. After months of hunting down the welling and crying of many dead citizens, mistakenly catching a child who dropped his lollipop on occasion, i had finally found the final one. She laid still in a basket of unfinished laundry just staring as i approached her. I said "I've come to release you from this world, little one. Do not be affraid." She sat in silence. Soon though i would find myself confused and taken back by her maniacal laughter! Her eyes glowed and she belched fire and chanted in the ancient evil language of japanese. This is when i realized she was no ghost but the very hell demon i had been preparing to take down. I guess the evil goo trail leading up to her location should of been a dead giveaway but come on i was exhausted from all that rice training and not to mention i had to share a room with that creepy old master whiterobe! But this was no time to beat myself up for being a dumbass, i had to prepare for the final battle! A battle that would change the world as we know it...

I now have to go though for quarter beers night. Finish this tale for another day. :)

Am I the only one whis was disappointed that, while Dipster made a nice effort on his story, he somehow managed to fail to name the kung-fu master "Sensei Marinara"?
