Run for the Cure - Two Weeks Left to Donate!

I'm sure it's old news by now that my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer this past spring. Her surgeries are all finished, and she's currently going through chemotherapy, with radiation scheduled to start sometime in November or December. She lost her hair this past month, which was probably the toughest thing we've needed to deal with so far - it's a constant reminder of what she's fighting.

She's pretty feisty - and her prognosis is good - but her treatments are scheduled to continue through Christmas and we wanted to do something extra to encourage her. We're putting together a team of friends and family who will be participating in the Run for the Cure event happening at the MTS Centre one month from today.

As part of this project, I'm doing a *small* amount of fundraising: only $150 in total. Please consider making a donation to help me out! Small donations will add up quickly toward this total (and you'll receive a tax receipt for anything $20 or over). I have two weeks to finish my fundraising.

You can donate by credit card here:

Thanks in advance! :)
