i've been pretty lucky in my life to not have been affected by anyone i am close to being diagnosed with breast cancer. but i have been very touched by many stories i have heard from survivors. and deeply saddened by stories of others who were not so lucky. my hope is that they will find a cure for breast cancer and it will never be something to touch the lives of my children, family or friends in the near future. on a side note, during the walk i realized how seriously out of shape i have gotten (i was SURE i was going to faint from exhaustion) and will be rectifying that so that i survive hawaii in november.

Gina, I am so glad you participated in this. what a great thing. I need to do this sometime. we are all affected by breast cancer in one way or another.
I love the Race for the Cure, in fact I participated in that myself a couple of times when I worked for the Seattle Breast Center at Northwest Hospital. I'm so glad you did it, and way to go in making it to the end. :)
hey g, you rock!
and yes, you better prepare for CAMPING in hawaii!
