We're quite proud of ourselves today. We broke a COMPASSIONATE HANDS AND HEARTS record on Saturday, April 13, 2013. We had an outreach for FIVE, yes FIVE breast cancer warriors.
They are all in different phases of the journey. They're either just beginning the battle, right in the thick of it or in it for the second time.
We're constantly amazed at what happens when we bring together a group of breast cancer patients who don't know each other. They come to us shy, sometimes uncertain and often apprehensive about what's in store. But it doesn't take them long to realize they have so much in common. They have similar experiences and feelings. And they speak the same language: breast cancer patient medical speak.
Our gatherings are always mixed with the right amount of tears, laughter and encouragement. We are blessed to be able to provide substantial financial assistance for these breast cancer warriors. That's important. But sometimes the best medicine for them is just to know that someone cares. That's important too.
Fight on Wanda, Fredda, Blanca, Jennifer and Tami ! We love you !
