The ribbons they gave all the survivors.
This is the 2nd year my company participated in this race. Of course last year, at the time, I was not diagnosed with DCIS. This was alot more emotional. Having to hold back tears while they had all the survivors walk together. I heard many stories and found out there was someone even younger than myself in our area. She is 31 and just had her Mastectomy last week. Finding out early is a good thing and that is what Hope4You is all about. Education. I also heard from women who have found a lump but have yet to have a lumpectomy or have anything like a follow up since they discovered it. Fear is obviously is their reason. I just hope that one day they will do something further and I hope they live a long and happy life.
