I'm the daughter of a breast cancer in remission survivor, my mother. This year, I am joining the Race for the Cure to show my support for women against breast cancer. I am lucky to still have my mother alive turning 60 yrs. old this year. My mother lost her mother when my mom was only 11 yrs. old. We would like to give back to our community and donate to the cause. Please click at www.thebreastcancersite.com to help women with low incomes get a FREE mammogram.

On Saturday, October 20th, 2007 Susan Koman funded the Race for the Cure against breast cancer event at Bayfront Park, Downtown Miami. Thankfully, I was a part of this amazing event that left chills down my spine from such intense awareness in our communities today against breast cancer. My grandmother died at a very early age to breast cancer. Thanks to such non-profit organizations, charity events, world wide donations, research and awareness, my mother was lucky enough to survive breast cancer. She lives to tell the tale of fighting such a common disease that so many women of all ages experience today. I'm hoping to spread AWARENESS and MESSAGE that early detection DOES save lives! Please perform regular self-examinations and mammograms, especially if breast cancer runs in your family.
