My mom and the 3 Day walk….
Nine years ago my mom sat me and my sister down for a talk. We never really have serious talks, so we knew something was up. We found out that my mom had breast cancer. I was 23, my sister was 18. The idea at that time that I might lose my mom was unfathomable.
I’m lucky to say that nine years later, my mom is cancer free. Now that I’m a mom and she’s a grandma, the idea of losing her is even more scary! I truly feel for all of those that have lost a love one to breast cancer. The scare of breast cancer was more then enough for me.
My mom has done several of the Komen “Race for the Cure” walks in the past. This year she (and a group of friends) have decided to tackle the 3 Day Walk. I am in awe of those that attempt and complete the three day walk. I’m not going to walk it with her, but I’m hoping to help her reach (and exceed) her fundraising goal.
I am going to offer ALL my past clients from 2006-2008 the opportunity to purchase their digital images at a discounted rate plus a donation to the three day walk. Single images will start at $35 ($10 of which will be a donation) and sessions will start at $150 ($50 of which will be a donation). If this is something you are interested in, please contact me. I will review your files and work with you to create a 3 Day Walk collection that works for you. The donations will be made in YOUR name (unless you prefer to place them in Lil Sweet Pea’s name), so you get the added bonus of a tax deduction.
Individual donations can also be made via The 3 Day site. Please help me help my mom and all the other moms and women out there that have faced or are facing breast cancer.
Here’s a picture of my mom and my daughter. I simply can not imagine how my life would be without her! I hope my daughter has a lifetime of memories with her grandma ahead of her!
