Title: A plea for help.....
Post by: sixpack2639 on September 25, 2007, 12:04:46 am: Hi Everyone!

My friend, Carole Rorrer, is participating in a National Breast Cancer Awareness fund raiser sponsored by the Avon Society.

She is 64 years old and has Fibromyalgia.

She is very committed to participating in the Breast Cancer Awareness walk in Charlotte, NC on October 20-21, 2007.

She will be walking 40 miles, in just two days, which is amazing when you consider the joint pain generated by the Fibromyalgia.

In order to participate in this walk, she will need to raise $1,800.00.

If you can find a way to make even the smallest donation, I know she’d appreciate it a ton!

Please help her to reach her goal!

The link below will take you to her Avon Breast Cancer Walk web page.

There is a place to donate any amount that you desire.

It's very easy!

Breast Cancer has affected just about everyone in some manner or another and doesn't have international boundaries, so lets help ourselves, as we help my friend Carole with her walk!

Thank you all in advance!

Cheers, Carl
