Today is Random Acts of Light day - it's a day created by the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to encourage small kindnesses for those who are battling or have survived leukemia & lymphoma. It's no secret that this group provided endless acts of light for Kerry - your cards and gifts kept her going during her battle. So today, we encourage you to do a little good for someone in your life who needs it. It doesn't have to be a cancer survivor, it can be a caregiver or someone who's had a rough week or month or year. A card, flowers, or even texting a giftcard for coffee can really cheer someone up!

We're eternally grateful for the light you shared with Kerry and our family - pass a little of that on today! B+

Random Acts of Light bring celebrities, local heroes, friends & families to surprise people touched by blood cancers for special meetings.

Can't believe this was 8 years ago. We miss Kerry every day and are so thankful for all the people who supported her in her fight. You can see the Dropkick lyrics that gave her strength on the door of her hospital room.

The fact that the band took the time to come and see Kerry and to play for her and laugh with her is something our whole family will never forget.

Wishing you all the happiest holidays! We miss Kerry Curran intensely, but remembering how happy all of your cards and letters made her, reminds us of how many incredible people there are in the world!

This year, spread a little love to the people in your life who are having a rough time. And B+ Always!

Hi All - One year ago we started the Cards for Kerry campaign and were overwhelmed by all of the love and well wishes Kerry and our family received. As the holiday season comes into full swing, I hope you'll all take a minute to remember what an amazing impact you had on Kerry's last christmas and try to do the same for someone else in your life this year! Whether it's donating to your charity of choice or sending cards to an unexpecting stranger!

And as always, B+!!!

Hi all -- Today would be Kerry's 31st birthday! Thank you for helping us keep her memory and her legacy alive. Celebrate her life tonight and spend it having fun with the ones you love! B+ Always!

Hi All -- this will be our fifth Christmas since Kerry passed. We wanted to share this photo of how incredibly happy your cards and well-wishes made her. It always serves as a reminder to our family of the big effect small acts of kindness can have. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you that supported Kerry -- and we hope you'll all continue to take a moment to send a card or reach out to someone who might need a little support this holiday! B+ Always

This photo was just a few days after we revealed the big card project to Kerry -- we didn't tell her because we didn't know if we'd receive any cards in the mail. For this entire year, Kerry's hospital room was filled with literally thousands of well-wishes from around the country and world. It brought cheer to her every day.

Wow! A huge thanks to the incredible cyclists from across the country who have sent Kerry's parents notes and updates. It means so much to us that you all keep Kerry in your thoughts. Knowing that her legacy lives on with you is truly heartwarming.

Hi All- We've got big news! Near and dear friends of our team are in the running to become WOMAN of the YEAR for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society! And they're doing it, in part, in the name of our dear warrior Kerry! Please consider supporting them on their intense journey to raise $50,000 for Leukemia & Lymphoma research in the next 10 weeks! http://www.mwoy.org/pages/nyc/nyc16/lnardi

You can also check out this video of Andrew McMahon - giving a shout out to the project. Kerry watched Andrew's documentary for inspiration when she was first diagnosed. He had the same type of cancer, was the 5th child and was almost as punk rock as her haha! He's a survivor and has done incredible work to fight cancer in young adults!

Happy everyone! Consider donating to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in memory of Kerry as you gear up for the year end. They have invested over $1Billion in research to fight blood cancers. Plus -- you'll get a welcome tax write-off.

When The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk funds treatments that save lives, it's all due to people like you. Without your efforts LLS could not provide these lifesaving treatments. LLS really is making cures happen with your help.

Kerry's incredible contact at the NY Rangers shared this video of Kerry and Damian's trip to MSG in 2011. Kerry left the stadium saying "this is the best day of my life" -- which means a lot for someone who was in the midst of her battle against leukemia.

It means so much to get this glimpse of our girl and our family can't thank the Rangers enough for their constant support of Kerry and for helping to keep her memory alive! B+!!

On April 25th, 2010, Kerry's 24th Birthday she was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myelogenous Leukemia). It was then that she learned her blood type was B+! She m...
