Avon 3 Day for breast cancer
I am so blessed to have so many angels on earth. One of them is Cecelia Bradley who is a high school friend of Aprils’. Last weekend she walked the Avon 3 Day in my honor. Not only did she take off Friday from work and give up her whole weekend to participate, she trained forever and raised money in order to participate in a 60 mile walk and camp out 3 nights! I am so proud of her and so very honored that she did this! I can never thank her enough. Only 25% finished the entire walk. Cecelia is a giving and generous young woman and is beautiful inside and out. April flew up for the weekend so that we could go to the closing ceremonies at SMU. What an inspiration it was to see all of the participants walk in followed by the support crew and then the survivors. It made you laugh and cry! We saw a couple of young husbands wearing pink bras on the outside of their T shirts. We also saw T shirts with a squirrel and “Nuts for boobs”, “Save the TaTas” and “Don’t let cancer steal 2nd base”. The total raised was in the neighborhood of 8 million dollars. What an accomplishment. Job well done Cecelia!!!!! I have the greatest admiration for you!
I can’t begin to say how much I appreciate everyone’s thoughts, support and prayers. I pray for you all every night. I am very blessed to have you all in my life. My husband, children and friends have been my rock while on this journey. I love you all. Keep praying - I still have a long way to go!
