Getting the Cure on!

Tim and I were lucky enough to attend a breakfast this morning for the Denver affiliate of Susan G. Komen. The sea of pink napkins, dresses, and ties were delightful to see. The stories of the women and men who have won their fight with breast cancer were truly moving.

As I sat there, I thought about my close friend who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She caught it early enough that her outcomes look promising, but she still had to undergo radical surgery and chemotherapy. Her life and the lives of those who love her have been impacted tremendously. And she is one of the lucky ones-- she was educated on self-care and has insurance. Like many states, Colorado has had extreme budget cuts and preventative care for breast cancer has not escaped.

We hope you will join us in supporting this important cause -- by following the link above -- or participating in one of their upcoming events.
