Big Boobie Friends Forever

Cute title, huh?

That just so happens to be the name of the team i joined for the Avon 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer in Boston. Our team captain is my brothers girlfriend and asked me if i would participate this year. Now, i haven't lost anybody close to breast cancer but i do surgery on a lot of these patients and it is very sad. I'm going to walk just to support the cause and to do "something" with myself. I feel the need to do something to make me feel accomplished. And besides, anyone can be diagnosed with breast cancer.

So over the course of two-days i will be walking 39.9 miles! Yikes! I bought new sneakers yesterday that i will break in and begin my training. I just started my fundraising yesterday and sent out emails and posted letters all around work. I have to raise $1800 before the event.

Its the biggest challenge i've ever taken on, but I'm very excited about doing it because i know it will make a real difference to the millions of people affected by breast cancer. I've also decided that for people who donate, if they know someone who has/had breast cancer, i will wear their name on me in their honor.

If you would like to help support our efforts and the breast cancer cause you can make a donation online at http://www.avonwalk.org/, click Make A Donation, and type my name, Nicole McCabe. Every little bit is welcomed and greatly appreciated.

And remember, one woman in the US is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes.
