I am not sure where the time has gone but October is here and that means it's Breast Cancer awareness month. An entire month dedicated to pink! And since we all know how much I love pink, you know I love October.
This October I am doing something a little different. Every day this month I am posting a quote that inspires me to keep fighting along with a picture from the breast cancer walks I have participated in. It gives me a chance to share my breast cancer journey and to hopefully inspire others to never give up hope!
October could not have come at a better time. This past weekend, I finished another 6 weeks of treatment. 6 grueling weeks of feeling like the end was never in sight. 6 weeks of not feeling like myself. 6 weeks of trying to smile through the pain. But as my mind starts to clear and my body begins to go back to normal(whatever normal is), I am again reminded that it's not always going to be easy but it is always going to be damn worth it!
So I am going to use these 31 days to heal and to regain my strength. Strength I will need when October is over and I head to Dallas with my girls to walk 60 miles in 3 days for Breast Cancer.
A walk I have done 6 other times and will continue to do for as long as I can.
This walk will not be easy (not that they ever are). This walk will push my body like never before. It will be long and emotions will be running wild. But it will be worth every sore muscle and blister that I hope to not get. It will be a time to heal all over again. It will be a time to laugh really hard and to cry at any second. It will be time to inspire and to be inspired by some amazing stories. It will be a time to be surrounded by a sea of pink warriors all fighting for the same thing. An end to Breast Cancer.
So this October where a little extra pink! Raise awareness and NEVER, EVER give up Hope!
