PEEKSHURES FROM OUR WALK!!! BUCKETS & FRIENDS

It was humid and hot and sticky, but I have never felt better doing this walk. I had 4 (Leelee, Latina & Nancy & Nancy's sister) women with me who lost their mothers to Cancer. And we were walking for those who had lost the battle, and for one who recently found out she has cancer. So the fight continues. We did get a little emotional but that's ok. Ladies, it was a privilege and an honor walking with all of you today. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

At mile one, this little boy wanted to take a peekshure with us, he was too cute


The proud Leelee at the end


The proud team...hope your butts are ok now...lol


This is a team picture of survivors, there were some young women in this crowd...so scary...but uplifting as well when you see women who have been surviving for 10, 15, 20 yrs. 1 in 4 women will get some form of cancer


This is the reason why I walk!!!! so more women can wear this pink shirt




The ladies looking down on the survivors

What a great thing to see.. congrats to all of you and thanks for supporting such a great cause.

I sure wish I had known how to sign up for that.. but I ain't a bucket .. hehe

Cancers (of all types) are a very big concern for me.. Im always moved to see people try and help. Instead I just gave over money to a person at the office, I have NO idea who they are.. but they were walking! heh.

Hugs to you all!

Shamma - That looks like a pic of Edie Falco (carmela) from the Sopranos, not Lorainne Bracco (dr. melfi). Am I right?

Yup, smooch, Leelee kept going, this is so nice, I love this. I have been doing this walk now for 4 yrs and it gives me such a great feeling all the time. I am a woman and I have breast and I will always walk until there is a cure.

I would like to give a special shout out to the highest fundraiser Kathy Yeah!!! you done good girl. The team is proud of you.

When they called our name over the loud speaker along Central Park you should have heard our mouths When I told the lady our team name, she was like what Yes maam I did say Buckets

Junebride you are so right, it was not the Dr at all it was the wife, thanks I will edit that.

Xelindrya, I thought everyone knew, we would have love to have had you on the team, it was buckets and friends....as long as you care you could have walked with us, we do not discriminate
