She saw her mother hit by cancer at 33
Watched as she fought back and won
And learned what it takes to be a superhero.
Today they fight for the cure side by side.

ReplyDeleteSuch an important cause. Sadly, I have lost a few friends to breast cancer. The survivors are true heroes to me. Such courage!
ReplyDeletefight the fight. my mother was hit by cancer at the age of 37 and lost the fight a year later. miss her every day to this day.
ReplyDeleteMy Mom is a survivor. Since 1986. I know we're eventually going to lose her - but it won't be to Cancer. Thankfully.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Mom. I'm telling on you though...
ReplyDeleteMom totally doesn't play fair. Emily and I were sitting having lunch on day two, when I checked the blog on my phone. We sat and cried as we read this. Then realizing how absurd we must have looked began to laugh, hard, which I'm sure looked even more absurd.
The support from so many people, in so many places has been amazing. I can't thank you all enough.

PS I'm pretty darn proud of my 16-year-old and all she has accomplished. $1800 and 40 miles is no easy task.
