Taming the Savage Breast

Race for the Cure

I sent this out in email, but wanted to repost it here in case I missed anyone:

On June 10, I'm going to be taking part in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation Race for the Cure. I'm doing a 5K Walk (there is also a 1K Walk, a 5K Race, and, at a different time, a 3-day walk).

If you would like to sponsor me in this walk, you can make donations at the following location:

If you'd like to participate in the walk with me, sign up here:

As I face the challenge before me of fighting and ridding my body of this disease, I realize how lucky I am. A decade ago, my particular disease was considered fatal. Not so today. And much of the credit for that goes to research such as that conducted by teh Susan G. Komen Foundation. I hope you donate something, even $10, so that future generations can have it even easier than I do.
