10 YEARS AGO, that was me, riding in my 1st Le Tour de Femme! What a journey it has been, and since then I cherish everyday.
After breast cancer in 2002, I had a 1% chance of recurrence, so it was a bug surprise to discover in 2009 the cancer returned. My husband and boys could not join me in the all women's ride, so I showed up to the ride not knowing a single person and left with a community of friends that I cherish and look forward to seeing every year. This ride has become my cancer anninversary celebration.
Today I ride for all of those going through cancer treatment. The money we raise goes to organizations- The Angel Fund at Rex and the Kay Yow Foundation, that assist cancer warriors in practical ways during their treatment.
Please join me in lifting up those currently in cancer treatment.
