#162 One Woman, Many Lakes

Today is the day for my first long distance swim of the year in beautiful, and I hope warm, Lake Patagonia in Arizona.  Cancer, watch out now!  Visit the website on how to support my swim and learn more about this disease. https://secure.metavivor.org/page/contribute/one-woman-many-lakes

I have written about the statistics on what over 155,000 of us deal with day after day and now it is time to stand up and demand more than the paltry 2% that is given to metastatic research. Of all the millions of dollars raised for breast cancer, the ones who need it the most get the least.  Doesn't quite seem fair.

So stroke after stroke I'll attack the water with the hope that we will be heard and no longer ignored. Do I sound mad?  You bet I am so thank you in advance for supporting me and the thousand others who need your help.

Please spread the word and pass this on and on and on.

Thanks for reading # 162 of 7777.
