I am sure you all are waiting to hear from Adam...He has to travel for work this week and has really been slacking on writing an update. Although, it is pretty boring here buried in snow :-( Over the past month I have continued with chemo each and every week. I got of the house twice to drive with Adam to an appointment for work. I will have him update you on what happened at our dinner away from home. As I see the snow fall right now, I am very anxious to get back to Florida, just to be able to get out of the house! We are still hoping and praying that my treatment is working...we have had a few small signs...I personally know many of you and some of you are new friends! Thank you so much for all of your prayers and thoughts as I fight this battle. I have decided to participate in a very special event called the Breast Cancer 3-Day. It is going to be at the end of July in Cleveland. I'll walk 60 miles over the course of three days with thousands of other women and men. The net proceeds will support breast cancer research, education, screening and treatment through Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund. Yikes 60 miles! Nothing really seems crazy to me anymore. I really need your help in raising at least $2,300. That is the minimium I have agreed to. Right now there are 1,036 in my facebook group. I could be done with a donation of only $2.25 per person! Truthfully, I am looking to raise much more. Would you be willing to spare one coffee this week for me? Think about it as taking me out for a cup and give $5.00?Keep in mind how far I'm walking - and how hard I'll have to train. I am doing this for the hope and belief of further treatment options for me! I want to keep plugging :-)You can give online at www.The3Day.org. Just follow the link below to visit my personal fundraising webpage and make a donation. You can also call 800.996.3DAY to donate over the phone.

According to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, approximately 200,000 American women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and nearly 40,000 will die from the disease. That's why I'm walking so far. To do something bold about breast cancer. I hope that you'll share this incredible adventure with me - by supporting me.Thank you! Erin
