Y-ME Walk 2008

Last year about 1 month after my diagnosis, we participated in the Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization Walk To Empower. It was an unbelievable event, where my family and friends came out to be there for me in such a surreal and frightening time. In less than 2 weeks we raised over $8000 to help support women with breast cancer. We also had over 70 members on our team, Jual's Gems walking with us! My sister Sara is organizing another team this year and our goal is to raise $9000. We invite you to join us on Mother's Day for the walk in Washington, DC. If you can't join us please consider donating to the Y-ME organization, their slogan is, "no woman should have to face breast cancer alone." I have not faced one step alone in this battle and I'm so thankful for that! I want the same support for everyone who faces this horrible disease! Please go to the website for more information on the walk and on donating! Thank you so much!
