It still is.
Today is LIVESTRONG Day.
Why today? It's a cancerversary. On October 2, 1996, Lance Armstrong was diagnosed with advanced testicular cancer, and before he knew whether he would survive, he started his foundation to fight cancer.
But the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF) does so much more than raise funds or awareness.
It helps people affected by cancer.
It inspires the will to fight — and the courage to keep going.
It keeps you fired up — and channeling your inner badass.
It makes you feel like you're part of something much bigger than yourself — and reminds you that you are never alone.
It reminds you to hang tough and keep believing that prayers will be answered.
It teaches you that "unity is strength, knowledge is power, and attitude is everything."
Always will be.
And it's worth repeating.
Enjoy ... And LIVESTRONG.

ReplyDeleteMy next scan is 10/11 to see what that pesky lung nodule is up to. I keep busy with Baby C so I don't think about the big bad C, but you know how that goes, now that scantime is comin' around.
