Walkin' with LOVE(ll's)

We have come together as a team to support the thousands of Canadians diagnosed with breast cancer every year.
 
Breast cancer has always been a very dear cause to me and I have participated in prior years. This year is different. 

Feb 2024 my world was flipped upside down with the words no one wants to hear. You have stage 2 HER breast cancer.  How me? Why me? What the f@*^ am I going to do. All these things ran through my mind. Then came the tears, the anger and a little bit of the pity party. But I realized very quickly this disease does not wait for you to get on board. That is where my mind set shifted. Okay so yes now what? What do I do? How to I kick this disease ass?

I went through 8 rounds of chemo over a 16 week period followed by a double mascetomy on August 19.  This past Monday I heard the words that anyone battling this disease wants to hear "there in no evidence of residual carcinoma". Cancer free baby!!!!! I still have at least 6 months of reconstruction and years of close monitoring ahead of me but I'm on my way
 
To everyone fighting this insane mind fuck of a disease I'm there with ya!!! Sending lots of love - let's kick cancers ass!
 
We are participating and fundraising for this year’s Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure, because we believe better treatment options and survival outcomes are possible. And we want to support all Canadians impacted by breast cancer, including our family and friends. 
 
With your help, we can reach our fundraising goal and fund groundbreaking breast cancer research and support programs and services for those impacted by this disease. Together, we can create a future without breast cancer. 
 
Please donate today. Help us give Canadians impacted by breast cancer a reason to have hope. 
 
Thank you! We appreciate your generous support.
 
the LOVElls and our amazing team!!!!
