I am IN IT to END IT! What’s it like to WALK the Avon Breast Cancer Walk?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYqPBF083kw&feature=share I am honored to be walking this coming weekend (I did it 13 years ago!) with thousands of others who have made the same courageous commitment: to help raise awareness and funding for this devastating disease. We will push ourselves far beyond what we ever thought we were capable of doing. I know more people than I can count that have been affected by this horrendous disease. Too many people have had their lives torn apart. I refuse to sit by and watch it happen. The Avon Foundation awards funds the money raised to help advance medical research into the possible causes, prevention, treatment and cure of breast cancer; medical care for breast cancer patients; support services for patients and their families; educational seminars; and early detection programs. http://info.avonfoundation.org/site/TR?px=5575739
