Humbling Honor

Thank you Komen Central Valley for all your hard work and dedication to the cause. I am humbled that you selected me for this tribute when I know there are countless deserving women in our community who are full of courage and inspiration.

Family and friends, please check out this blog to learn about the wonderful honor we have been selected for and hopefully we will see you on Race Day to celebrate life, love and laughter!

One Proud Mama,

James

(It goes without saying that Blaker and Rigo are my co-awardees; hence, I am proud of Blake!)

This blog was created as a means to share accurate information with my loved ones during my treatment. As I embark on Life After Cancer, the blog will continue. I'm not sure what lies ahead but plan on sharing the good, the bad and the ugly. In the end, I am certain of one thing, Life Is Good.

Everything contained in this blog is simply an expression of my opinion and a reflection of my individual experience of being pregnant with cancer. Yes, I'm a lawyer.
