Dear Mrs. Clinton:

At the suggestion of my mother, Clara Apodaca, I would like to
Emma Jean Cervances
share my story with you, tell you about the foundation 1 have
Beverly Chavez
created in New Mexico and ask you to do a taped video for the
Carolyn & Jay Folkman
"JEFF APODACA, CELEBRATION OF LIFE" gala to be held on
Angel & Ed Gaero
Saturday, October 9, 1999 in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

[t was October 18, 1979 when I was told I had a rare sarcoma of
Mary Gail & Lamar Gwaltney
the soft muscle that was malignant. The tumor had imbedded into
Judy Jones
my prostate. I can recall doctors telling me that they would do
Liz & Bill Layden
everything they could to save my life, but when you are seventeen
Ben Lucero
years of age, dying is not part of your thought process. After 17
Kathy Lynch
months of chemotherapy and seven weeks of radiotherapy, doctors
Mila Kouptsova
told me that I had an 80% chance of survival.

Twenty years have past and now at 37 years of age, I want to

celebrate this milestone with my family and friends that helped me

in so many ways during a very difficult period of my life.

I spent many days at the University of New Mexico Cancer Center,

some of the loneliest but some of the richest days of my life. That

is why my goal is to help the young children that are fighting this

dread disease in New Mexico by developing a computer center at
John Sedberry
UNM Children's Cancer Center. Many of these kids spend days

to be able to bring hope, education and communication to their

Jeff,
The President and I are pleased to send our very special greetings to
everyone gathered with you this evening in Albuquerque, NM and join in the
celebration of the first JEFF APODACA, CELEBRATION OF LIFE gala.
You are to be congratulated and admired not only for the creation of the
JEFF APODACA, CELEBRATION OF LIFE FOUNDATION, but your
faith, your determination and your positive spirit you have shown throughout
your years with cancer.
And an inspiration to so many, that cancer is NOT the dread disease many
people associate with it, but a great example of a survivor that have been in
total remission for many years and went on to play football at SMU and the
University of New Mexico, when most doctors said you would never play
sports again.
Your commitment to help others, especially the young children at the
University of New Mexico Cancer Center by establishing a computer center
for them is to be admired. You are helping to give these young patients a
brighter future and many will long remember this.
when husband
I applaud you, your mother and my friend Clara Apodaca and all your
family and friends, many that have traveled from across the country to be
with you this evening, who have participated in making this event a most
successful and enjoyable one.
My best wishes to everyone and we look forward to many more years of the
JEFF APODACA, CELEBRATION OF LIFE events.
Good evening.
