Gotta Fight like a GIRL, and I'm proud of it.

Starbucks came through for June 16th for my mini walk. YEA! Next weekend is my mother in laws yard sale and they have a bunch of big ticket items to sell. YEA! I really want to set up one more bunco game but don't have a location to do it. I'll have to do some more searching. I'd like to do it somewhere that I can have food and maybe some wine served. We will see. Its only 52 days away. I can't wait.

Your support

I just accomplished my 3rd AWBC walk, having walked over 90 miles in three years and I've raised over $6000 so far. My mother-in-law is a BC survivor. I walk because I can't walk away. I believe that helping now will make a difference tomorrow.

"Little girls should wear pretty pink ribbons in their hair... I walk so
someday Breast Cancer will be a memory and they won't have to wear them on their
shirts."

These are my hopes and prayers for a cancer free tomorrow!

Why I Walk

I cannot begin to explain all the reasons I walk to find a cure for Breast Cancer. I walk in Honor of some like my MIL Karen , my friend Jenni's three aunts and Margie Cash all SURVIVORS. I walk in memory of others like Pinhead, a family friend, and Monica Cooper who I never had the pleasure of meeting who were all taken from us to soon. I walk because

"I can't walk away"

because

"Its about the MISSION not about the MILES."

Essencially I walk for the Avon Foundation because the $$$ we raise, over 78% goes back to the community and because it cares for the WHOLE woman (or man) and thier family not dropping $ into research only.
