At a Loss...

As I returned home from the gym tonight, I received a private message on Facebook telling me that tonight we lost another Pink Warrior.  It is never easy to hear that we have lost a family member.  The one thing that I know, is that our Pink Family will now do all we can to be there to assist the family.  Showing our love and giving support where we can.  I get so frustrated knowing that we are doing all we can to help find a Cure, but yet we just lost another friend to this heinous disease.  I am a concoction of emotions right now.  I wish that I could find an eloquent way to express what is in my heart right now, but I am at a loss.  So I guess I will just leave you with this thought tonight...  Please don't wait until you are affected by this to be effected by it... We are saving lives every day, with everything we are doing, but we are still losing loved ones, friends, wives, husbands, and some parents are having to bury their children...  You don't have to walk 60 Miles over 3-Days to make a Difference!  No matter where you are, you can help to bring about the Cure.  It will take all of us, joining together, using our talent, resources and love... As our Pink Warrior takes flight tonight, she can rest easy knowing that she did not quit.  She was held in love and taken home... XoXo

  1. It may take a village to raise a child, but it will take our entire community to beat this disease. We each bring a different gift to the party. Some of us are fund raisers, some of us raise awareness, some of us walk, some of us crew, some of us write the checks, some of us fight, some of us support, some of us research, etc., etc., etc. The point is that if we all work together we will find a cure so we won't have to bury anymore friends because of this hideous disease! I am sorry to hear that we have lost yet another warrior. They can rest easy now, and we will continue the fight in honor of them all in an effort to secure a future where breast cancer is reduced to a footnote in our history books!

  2. So sorry for your loss Sunny. Sad to hear another warrior now has wings, but glad to know there is no more suffering for her and she can rest healed now. We all need to continue to fight for her and all of our pink warriors!
