Not Stopping at 10
I have been relatively healthy this year and am feeling pretty good. I am thankful for that. Unfortunately I have heard of too many friends and family that are battling Cancer. I also had a bit of a scare myself earlier this year where I found a small lump on my chest. I saw the Dr who ordered an ultra sound and mammogram and they analysis did not look to be a concern but I have to follow up in a couple months to check again. These factors together have led me to sign up for another 3-Day next year. I will be walking in event number 10 in San Diego this year and have registered to walk in Denver next September. As always I am forever grateful to all who have and will continue to support me as I walk to raise money to help others fight Breast Cancer and to hopefully one day find a cure for Cancer.
God Bless

10th Event Delay Again
I trained all Summer and had my Fundraising complete. I was all ready for San Diego and really looking forward to it. Now it’s the Monday before the 3-Day and I wake up with a sore throat, headache, and ear pain. Feels like an ear or sinus infection. Coincidentally today was also the day that I got the e-mail from Komen about the Health Questionnaire. I am not feeling horrible and I doubt that I am infectious but it looks like I am going to have to put off event 10 for another year. I am not going to take chances of making anyone else sick and I really want to be at my best when I am traveling. I am going to miss being out there but it’s the right thing to do. I have already registered for Denver next year and some of my team is also registered for San Diego so at this point I am going to just start my fund raising and decide later which site to do next year.
