PASSION TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Today, I went to a luncheon for Breast Cancer Survivors sponsored by the Susan Komen Foundation for Breast Cancer Research. Save the top of your Yoplait Yogurt and send them in. Each one helps to fund money to go to research to stop Breast Cancer and all other cancers for that matter. I am passionate about this because I am a survivor and without research millions more women will die from this disease..btw, men get it too! And, if we can find a cure for Breast Cancer then we can find a cure for all Cancer. We have come a long way since my diagnosis and can get their faster with support from everyone. $1.00 from each person could help reach a cure. Think about it...you or someone you know will get cancer. I never thought I'd ever have cancer and yet I had the most agressive kind, now in remission and hopefully cured. But, if it rears its ugly head again, I will fight along with all of the other women and men out there to beat it and WE WILL WIN!

Right on Cindi... This is the month to wear PINK and give to the cancer society. This cancer should not harm anyone. Thank you Cindi for reminding us all.
