PINK RIBBON AND MY HAIR

Watauga, TX

I went to get a haircut yesterday...been way over 2 months and this is the cloak thing they put around me at the Salon. Only fitting. My hair on the pink ribbon and tomorrow I do the Race for the Cure so I felt this only fitting to be posted today. The annual Race for the Cure will be emotional and inspirational as it always is and three close friends of mine will be walking with me for the first time as well as the ones that have been there with me during each walk I've participated in for the last 5 years. All 3 first timers have loved ones that have gone thru cancer, currently battling or have died from cancer. Having my hair cut and having this wrapped around me reminded me of the day I had no hair and how blessed I am to have it back and now healthy. And, so this pink ribbon and a little of my hair is dedicated to all those currently going thru chemotherapy who have lost their hair but not their strength or faith to fight. My prayers are with you all. I thank God everyday for being able to live to tell my story and to help others going thru it. Look for my new 2009 Race For the Cure gallery to be placed up soon. Love you all and thanks to all of you for your years of support here on Pbase. It means more to me than you will ever know. And, there are other survivors that are on here on Pbase and this is dedicated to them as well! May God continue to Bless you all!
