This upcoming weekend is Relay for Life Santa Clarita Valley
and I will be participating for the 3rd year in row. Cancer seems to have touched every person I know and for me
it is no exception. I have lost
family members, friends, and sadly know friends who have lost little ones as
well.
This disease does not discriminate. It cares not for age or gender, social
standing or wealth, race or religion. It cares not whom it touches or in what way. It cares not if you’re ready for the
fight. Cancer will be the aggressor and you will find yourself at war with your
own body.
I want to find out why this disease is so powerful. I want to help those who are feeling
powerless to it. I want to stand
and fight for all who cannot. If I can help, even in the smallest of ways, I
feel I am talking a stand.
I walk for those I’ve lost. I walk for all who have
triumphed. I walk for the millions of families who have suffered great
losses. I walk for the parent who
has lost a child too soon. I walk
for the child who has lost a parent too soon. I walk because I want to be a part of a cause that benefits
us all. I walk because I am still
standing. Shouldn’t we fight if we are still standing?
