The most meaningful of days for many. 2 of our team members were diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer. Today, 1 year from his diagnosis, we spread the ashes of team member Otto Schutt who lost his battle to cancer. His friends and family fulfilled their promise to carry him to Machu Picchu one way or another. Hours later, Tracey Callahan celebrates 5 years cancer free by "saluting" the doctor that told her she had no chance of surviving. We conclude the day with a concert in the city square of Aguas Calientes where we are kindly honored by the mayor for the difference we are making in Peruvian cancer care. Give Thanks, Love Hope Strength. It is all of you who supported us, that deserve the honor. See all Peru Rocks Videos at http://www/perurocks.org Peru Rocks is a Love Hope Strength event.
