Cancer touches so many lives

I was going to write about what a great spin I had today. You know 1hour 35 spin with the group followed by a yoga session.  Instead, when I came home, I was told by my next door neighbour that his wife had died of lung cancer.  She was a wonderful, cheerful and fit woman who had just discovered the cancer in December. In less than three months she is gone.
Her husband Chris has a blog and is going to be participating in the Ride to Conquer Cancer. You can follow this link and read about their journey with this horrible disease.

I draw comfort from my participation on the Cops for Cancer Ironteam knowing that I am doing something to help fight this awful disease. Cancer touches so many lives... Rest in Peace Maureen.
