As many of you know, I've walked in 12 Weekend to End Breast Cancer events before and while I took a couple of years off, I have never stopped fighting to find a cure.
This past year I've lost 2 friends to cancer. While Barb and Carolyn fought lung cancer and leukemia, it's still cancer and the loss of a friend or loved one is immeasurable.
Who do I walk for?
-Barb, the best friend of a wonderful woman named Angela -Brenda, my mother in law, who has battled stage 4 ovarian cancer TWICE! -Marion, battling breast cancer again - Nada Jaksic
I walk in honour and memory of these women and so many more. The list is long. Sadly far too long.
So again this summer I'll lace up my shoes and take up the task of raising money and awareness for gynecological cancers.
Each dollar that you donate will help save lives! Please give as generously as you can. By donating online you are giving the hospital immediate access to the much needed research money.
The Weekend to End Women's Cancers is a two-day, 60-kilometre through the neighbourhoods of Vancouver.
Proceeds benefit BC Cancer Foundation, funding important cancer research, services and care that will not only benefit those suffering from breast cancer, but all women's cancers.
Much love and hope,
Suzanne
