Why I am walking in 2013...



As the 3-Day draws near, I reflect back on why I started this journey 3 years ago and why I am continuing on today.  In 2011, I wanted to do something bold to help spread awareness and to help find a cure for breast cancer.  I chose to walk in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day to honor the life of my mother and to help her celebrate being 25 years free from cancer.  Breast Cancer has touched too many lives!  My prayer is that one day God will provide us a cure so that no one else has to fight for their lives.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!  Please help to make others aware!  Early detection can save a life!  A life like my Mom's.  I am so blessed to have the opportunity to participate in the 3-Day.  I couldn't do this without my family, friends, and donors.  Thank you for your donation, your support, and your prayers!

As I walk 60 Miles this weekend (rain or shine) I will remember each and every survivor, each and every one who has lost their battle, and each and every donor.  May God Bless You All. I love you and I walk for you!
