PEEKSHURES FROM OUR WALK!!! BUCKETS & FRIENDS

Original post by shamma

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.

Back to what we came here to do..LOL

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
