I know a super amazing woman who last year had breast cancer. My friend Vicki. It might be hard to understand this but (and I SO wish it were not the case) the way Vicki had cancer, dealt with it, laughed about it, cried about was like a window into I hoped how I could be should I ever be faced with the challenge. Well we all know how that turned out...
Vicki is cancer free now and as much as it pains me to say this she has been like my cancer mentor. I really hope that there is a day some time very soon that none of us have to have the dubious honor of getting a phone call or an email from a loved one or friend beceause they now are part of the club. I don't want to mentor anybody! (But of course I will) That is why I want you to support Vicki. She is riding for me, for her and for the other women and men around her that have had to face a cancer diagnosis.
She is riding to Conquer Cancer - a two day bike ride from Vancouver to Seattle.
Please check out her page - http://www.conquercancer.ca/site/TR?px=2838995&fr_id=1413&pg=personal
And consider making a donation to her or perhaps someone else you know who may be doing the ride.
Thanks - S
