So Much Money!

Hello all,

We are still a few days away from the walk in Cincinnati, but have reached, and surpassed the goal of raising $1,000. I have to admit, when I saw that was mom's goal, I was a little hesitant that we would be able to raise that much. However, I don't know why I even thought that given the people that we are surrounded by. Thank you so much to everyone that has donated to the cause, we truly could not have done it without you! Your support means more than you know to mom and our whole family. As a thank you and a continuation of the celebration, we are hosting a brunch after the walk, so feel free to come back to the house. If you still would like to donate, I have listed the link below!

Thanks again,

Jenny

Happy October!

You are surely being bombarded with pink and breast cancer awareness messages already, but a quick reminder!

If you are between 40 and older, the American Cancer Society and Susan G. Komen Foundation recommend you get an annual mammogram and clinical breast exam. For women less than 40, current recommendations are to get mammograms only if you are at high risk based on family history or other factors. Clinical breast exams are recommended at least every 3 years for women 20-39, and every year beginning at age 40.
Here's a little summary...
For more information on what makes you at "high risk", look here.

Here is a little web tool you can use to remind yourself when to schedule a mammogram/CBE.

Mom got her mammogram that found her first cancer because a woman at work reminded her- its important!

Enjoy all the pink treats!
