The Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk!

My sister-in-law Alena and I are going on a wonderful adventure together! We have signed up to do the Susan G. Koman Breast Cancer 3 day walk in Dallas/Ft. Worth , Texas Oct 26-28,2007.
We wanted to do something outrageous together! Being able to raise money for such a wonderful cause and meet so many new and wonderful people...and walk our Asses off sounded perfect to us!

This is my web page for the event where you can donate! Anything you can give would be greatly appreciated.
We have to raise at least $2200.00 each and would love to raise more!
Everyone knows someone...family or friend who has been affected by the devastation of cancer...including us!
My step-father died in 2000 from Bone Cancer....a very painful type of cancer. He was a wonderful man who did not deserve such a painful death! He faced it with dignity and humor, but with much sadness too. You see....he knew I was pregnant and was so excited about this grandchild...but passed away 7 months before the baby arrived.
I cannot tell you how much sadness I feel that my son will never get to meet this wonderful man...and vice versa!
So...I wanted to get more involved in helping any way I could in the fight against all types of cancers!
So please...give if you can....every little bit helps and will be Greatly Appreciated!
Cheers!
