You gotta love her…She’s Erica Fabulous! For those of us who care for her - we all know she’s got the fight of her life ahead of her. It’s our responsibility as Team Fabulous to let her know we are here for her and we’ll all support her through this rough time in any way we can. She’ll need lots of help whether it’s emotional, financial, or just getting her to smile that beautiful smile! Team Fabulous’ mission is to support Erica through her battle and help her keep the eye on the prize...kicking some serious cancer ass!!! As she’s demonstrated since her diagnosis, she’s strong and she’ll make it through, and Team Fabulous is here to help!
She's the cancer ass kicking diva with a heart of gold. Erica has been a survivor since June 2007 when she first learned of her diagnosis of metastatic colon cancer. Not ready to let this nasty disease get the best of her, she chosed to let her hair down (literally) and get into cancer ass kicking action! She has come a long way...undergoing months of exausting chemotherapy treatments, and a HUGE, MAJOR surgery that saved her life....brought to you by the fabulous Dr. DeMatteo of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center of NYC.
Since she is too busy being fabulous and fighting cancer to work, Team Fabulous is committed to help this disease crushing fashionista raise money to help the devestating costs of this nasty b!tch, including health and travel expenses so she can receive the best care possible!
Team Fabulous has so far raised a substantial amount of money for our Erica Fabulous, and she will be forever greatful. But through all of this, we have learned that not only are we trying to help someone we love, we also want to inspire people to help others!
Love is a beautiful thing, and has been demonstrated in such a major way through Team Fabulous!
Who I'd like to meet: All members of Team Fabulous!

Team Fab --- I just read this post from J.O. --- When you're saying your Team Fab prayers please include brian. He is also in need right now.
"Hey everyone. One of our fellow Northwood Alumns needs us. Brian Lair, who attended Northwood for a brief time in Michigan, has been diagnosed with a Glioma brain tumor following an M.R.I.. Brian has had small seizures for the past 6 months which prompted him to see a doctor. Brian undergoes surgery Thursday August 7th to remove the tumor, which is the size of a lemon, lodged in his brain. He has a 1 in 100 chance of making it through the surgery. The road in front of Brian is long and uncertain.
Brian has posted a blog at http://www. brianlair. blogspot. com
Please keep Brian and his family in your thoughts and prayers as he prepares for surgery on Thursday.
