Race for the Cure

Most of us know someone who has had breast cancer who have survived, traumatized and scarred, and worrying about the possibility of a relapse; or who have died as a result. My sister-in-law Betts, my harp teacher Val, my friends Leslie and Bonnie have all faced this devastating disease. I want no other woman to face the fear of death or disfigurement again.

And so, at the ripe old age of 49, I find myself putting on running shoes for the first time in many years and doing what I can to raise money, in honor of the women who have had breast cancer and in hopes of a cure.

Come join me in this 5K run Sunday morning, September 14th. If you would like to pledge money to help find a cure and assist women who are fighting breast cancer, go to my fundraising page and pledge what you can. Every little bit helps.

Thanks,
Bob
