TFC's 36 Hr. SL Fund Raiser for R4R by ShujinTribble

In late 2002, Shujin's wife ("Fujin") was diagnosed at RPCI with a rare form of cancer, "Angiosarcoma", and given the treatments available at the time, her best-case survivability was 20% at 5 years. So with the odds far against us, RPCI's amazing staff of researchers, surgeons, doctors and nurses did what they could with chemo, radiation and surgery to help her pull through.

Unfortunately on 22 May 2005, after battling for nearly 3 years her fight ended at 34 years of age.

In 2008, The Feline Conspiracy in Second Life began hosting a fund raiser for the Ride for Roswell to help RPCI & The Ride for Roswell.

In 2012 Shujin upped the ante by switching the fund raising event into a 36 hour radio marathon - not unlike the way M.D.A. & Jerry Lewis used to... only LONGER!

This year, 10 years after we lost Fujin, Shujin Tribble is AGAIN taking over the radio stream from Feline Conspiracy ( http://LiveDJ.TFCsl.com ) for the next 36 hr fund raising marathon for the Ride for Roswell team, 'End Of Cycle for Sarcoma' ( http://RideForRoswell2015.kintera.org/EndOfCycleForSarcoma ) to benefit the Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI - http://www.RoswellPark.org ) in Buffalo, NY.

This year the event is opening up for Co-Hosts to come on air via Skype (audio only) to keep him honest, keep him awake, to be interviewed and to talk about the necessity of organization like RPCI.

Anyone interested in being Co-Hosts for part of the show, please check the sched for available times ( http://tinyurl.com/pokdznj ) and contact ShujinTribble@GMail.com with your interested time(s).

And remember; "We will beat this for someone else... My Word."

NOTE:
1) Official Social Media (G+ / Twitter / FaceBook) Hashtag will be - #R4R36Hr

2) This is NOT a 'Second Life Exclusive' show. Anyone with a stream player will be able to listen and take part: WinAmp, VLC, Windows Media Player and iTunes, as well as some mobile devices should be able to play the stream live.

3) If you would LIKE to join us in Second Life, please be aware that 'The Feline Conspiracy' is an ADULT sim and will require anyone wanting to be in that area to verify they are an adult first. Cancer does NOT discriminate between adults and minors - but Second Life DOES need to a little bit.

4) If the TFC Radio Stream fills (over 100 listeners), there will be a backup server available at http://cp1.DigiStream.Info:10644
