Walking for Life in The Weekend To End Women's Cancers
On September 11th we Walked, and Walked and then had lunch. Then walked some more. The call to walk came to me from a co-worker who like so many of have been affected by the life altering and for the most part, always devastating effects of the "C" word. "CA" to those in the medical world and disgustingly on its own Cancer.
Unfortunately like most problems in this day and age the more money you throw at it the more likely it will go away. Now, the good part. Over 4500 women and men joined together for this 2 day foot numbing but life-changing walk and together raised over 10 Million dollars for Cancer research!
I'll let the photos do the rest of the explainging. exciting. challenging. emotional. action
So much respect has been given to all the survivors who participated in the walk. Their stories were inspiring and there experiences are the reason we need to help.
We all walked for the same reason but all of us have had a personal experience that compelled us to take part. Our own Family, our friends, our friend's families, our family’s families. Our future. Our Past, our Hopes
