Last year was my first race, I was in the middle of chemo at the time and only decided to do it at the last minute with my daughter and her roommate from college. We had such a fun time. At that point I wasn't really ready to be a breast cancer survivor yet but i was very affected by the stories of the poeple around me. This year i made a team of ladies i work with and my duaghter went again as well. The ladies i work with were moved to tears when the survivors did the survivor walk and made our human pink ribbon to the music of bagpipers playing "Amazing Grace" followed by Melissa Etheridge's "I Run For Life". They'd been there for me in the past year and a half, but hadn't realized just how many survivors there were.
