The Fight To End Breast Cancer

Avon Walk for Breast Cancer 2011

Welcome

friends and visitors .
You might ask, what do you know about Breast?
Have you had breast cancer?
Why do you walk for breast cancer?
Well, I answer!
With the little I do know, I use to get out the word out about breast cancer. I spend each day on research to learn more in order to help those who have breast cancer.
No, I have never had breast cancer, but I have been touch by it in the lost of a good friend who had it.
Each year for the last seven years I have participated in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. It makes me hold.
We should not just go to work day-to-day, thinking only of ourselves. We must spend some portion of that day caring for others. You will be truly blessed and rewarded for it.

Christmas Morning



All is peaceful. I just watched the sun come up here in New England. It is cold outside, but it is as it should be for this time of the year. While I am having my first cup of Earl Gray for the day, I feel it is the perfect time to sit and send my Walkers friend good wishes. I wish you  and your family peace and harmony for the day and the up and coming year.
With much admiration, Lady Estelle

26 Days Left!


As you probably already know I have decided to participate in Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. This is such an important cause to me because this year, an estimated 40,000 women will die from the disease. Breast cancer takes another life every 14 minutes. Another woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every 3 minutes. An estimated three million women are living with breast cancer. One million of them don't yet know it.

As part of the event, I pledged to raise money. People can make donations on my behalf, so that I can reach my fundraising goal. With the donations raised, the Avon Foundation will provide support and resources for women affected by this terrible disease. This will help so many people in our own community and throughout the country. Any amount you can give is great; I just appreciate your support.

It is faster and easier than ever to support this great cause - you can make a donation online by simply clicking on the link at the bottom of this message. Whatever you can give will help! I truly appreciate your support and will keep you posted on my progress.
