My name is Billie Jo and like a lot of others I have not been touched by breast cancer, YET.
I am 39 years old, I have two grandmothers aged 93 and 86, a mother, a sister, three daughters of my own, 6 nieces, 3 sisters-in-law and a mother in law. All of these women inspire me each day in some way. This is my first Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure but certainly don’t want it to be my last. The women in my life have inspired me to be healthier & happier.
We are running for the countless woman in Canada who aren’t as lucky as we…..Our team, The Desert Diva’s, is a combination of mothers/daughters, cousins, sisters & friends, all coming together for a great cause!!!
Today July 21/2009 I gave my three girls, 9 year old twins and 10 yr old, pink streaks in their hair!!
This is how we colored our world pink, and our reminder to help find a cure for Breast cancer!!!
