BREAST SAVERS fighting for a cure!
Please support me as I take an amazing journey in the fight against breast cancer! The Breast Cancer 3-Day is a 60-mile walk over the course of 3 days. Net proceeds benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure and National Philanthropic Trust, funding important breast cancer research, education, screening, and treatment.
I have had a lump checked in my own breast, when I was 26 years old, and that alone scared me greatly, just the thought of cancer. Cancer in itself scares the ba Jesus out of me. My doctor sent me for an ultrasound and mammogram...they did the ultrasound first to see if they thought they had anything to "worry" about, because they don't like to do mammograms on younger women people my age, because it can damage or destroy the ducts and such in the breast for breast feeding...anyway, luckily so far, they said they thought it was just dense tissue, and didn't do a mammogram!! But I have to watch it, to see if it changes at all! Which I feel it has, so I do want to make an appointment to make sure, very soon. But I have to find someone to take my current insurance, or I would have been there already!
I have seen a few people in my life affected by this horrid disease, and all pulled threw, except one GREAT teacher that I had an High School, Mrs. D, from Plymouth Salem high school, I found out that she was diagnosed with it, just after my class graduated, and a couple of friends and myself went and got her a precious moments, that was so cute, it was encouragement to "fight the cancer" and she had boxing gloves and boxing shorts on....however she passed away. :( She was such a great women and teacher! And I will always remember her, for the great women that she was! :)
So I am walking for all in which I have witnessed fight the fight and all others in this world that have or will face this horrid thing.
There are A LOT of women in my life, that are VERY special to me and I don't want to see not one of them have to fight this live altering or life taking disease. It scares me to no end.
Let's make a difference!
I hope you can help me and my team, The BREAST SAVERS, with our great journey that we will be proud of, for the rest of our lives!
Please Donate to us now!! Thank you so much!
Watch for our next fundraiser!!!

We had our first fundraiser last night at Mongolian BBQ in Canton! We raised $413 in tips for our grilling! :) Although I believe some of our waitress might have gotten some of our tips by mistake, but what can we do? lol!
Thank you SO much to Katherine, Debra and Scotty for helping us on the grills, and to everyone that came out to support us last night!
