Honor the survivors in your life on National Cancer Survivors Day at tomorrowâs 25th Annual Cancer Survivorâs Walk and 5K, organized by Northwesternâs Lurie Cancer Center.
Iâve participated in this walk for many years with my tribe to celebrate one of my dearest friends who survived uterine cancer and in honor of all those Iâve lost to this dreadful disease, including my cousin Denise who passed away 5 years ago today from colon cancer.
Itâs a positive, life-affirming family affair that celebrates and brings together all those affected by cancer⊠survivors, families and friends plus the doctors, researchers and health care providers⊠because it takes a village to survive and thrive!
You can register onsite in the morning and the money raised goes to fund cancer research, develop treatments and therapies and train the next generation of professionals who just may find a cure.
