Hi friends!
I truly wish we weren't all touched by cancer.
I lost two uncles to lung and brain cancer. And currently have one friend going through chemo for endometrial/ovarian cancer, and another going through radiation for brain cancer.
It's been a while since I've participated in a charity walk for cancer...so when a friend mentioned the Relay, I immediately said yes!
Nearly half of Canadians are expected to be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. That means almost half of our family and friends will hear the words “you have cancer” at some point in their lives. Join me in taking action to help give people with cancer the help and support they need to lead more fulfilling lives.
I’m determined to make a difference by participating in the Canadian Cancer Society Relay For Life. This is a nationwide event that brings people together to celebrate survivors, honor those we’ve lost and show that no one has to face cancer alone. By making a donation, you improve the lives of all those affected by cancer through world-class research, transformative advocacy and compassionate support.
I hope you’ll show your support, and help me reach my fundraising goal.
Thank you!
