One in Seven

Just Do It. The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation Race for the Cure

Would love it if you could help sponsor my awesome pal, and the Queen of Camping (and pretty much everything) D and her daughter E in their participation for the Komen Race for the Cure.

Please visit their site and make an online pledge. Even a dollar or two helps.

Her goal is $2,000 and I would love to help her beat that.

My beloved Grandma Jane died from breast cancer so this hits pretty close to home.

One in seven women will be stricken with breast cancer in her lifetime. The Komen Houston Race for the CureŽ raises money to fund education, screening and treatment programs for these women and thousands of others in our own community and supports the national search for a cure.

I know I read at least seven women's blogs every day. I have three sisters and four very close women friends of mine. I have at least seven female co-workers. I have more than seven neices. I have seven times seven church retreat sisters. I have seven female neighbors.

I don't like the odds. Please click

P.S. If you read this, I encourage you to add a post or a link on your site to D's Pledge Page. One in Seven. I thank you, and D thanks you :)
