Cancer Walks Blog

This was an amazing experience for me. I was asked by my friend, Judy Jenkins to help her and her team with whatever they needed from documenting the event to moving their belongings from one hotel to the next. I was deeply moved and very impressed with how organized the event was. I highly recommend either walking, volunteering to help a team and definitely donating to someone that is walking. To donate to my friend, go to www.3-day.org and search for Judy Jenkins. Thank you for watching, Angel

This video is 6:15 minutes long. During the time it takes you to watch it, over 5 women across the world will loose their life to breast cancer! That’s one every 69 seconds. One person’s Mother, another person’s sister, a daughter, a wife, an Aunt or a best friend…

I watched this video during my “Getting Started” meeting for my first walk in 2011. Never had I attended a meeting and cried. I was moved beyond words at what I’ve heard and seen! I had to find this video and share it with everyone! “The cure starts with me, you, You and YOU!”

It will take you less than 69 seconds to make a donation! your donation will be put to use the next day! If you’d like to make a donation, my fundraising website is http://bit.ly/dipa3Day12 Or you can donate to any other participant by clicking on the [Donate to a Participant] button from the 3 Day event website http://www.the3Day.org. You can also find further information from here too.

Thank you. Lets be part of the solution, and not wait for reality to hit us hard, and then try and do something! Lets try and find that cure sooner rather than later, and make the future better for our children!

The team Lynda’s Ladies was created to honor Jen’s mother (Lynda) who is an 18 year breast cancer survivor. Lynda was given a 20% chance to live for 5 years, but due to a clinical trial – she is still with us today.

Lynda’s Ladies has participated in The Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walks for Breast cancer since 2008. The first year Jennifer walked with a friend, Laura, and since then Jennifer has walked solo in DC, and now in San Diego. These walks benefit the Susan G. Komen Fund and the National Philanthropic Breast Cancer Fund. The walks are 60 miles over the course of three days.

These are the sights and memories you helped Jennifer to see during this year’s San Diego Walk.

Songs heard in the video are as follows:
#1 – I run for life by Melissa Etheridge
#2 – Pink Warrior – Candy Coburn
