My own fund raising efforts.

Hello friends! It has been a long time since my last post. I apologize! It was a very tough summer and now that the boys have settled back into school, things are getting back to normal. I am hoping to get started with the radiation in a month or so. I'm back to teaching most of my classes and I am feeling GREAT! We had a great time on the walk in Exeter. I have done this walk many times in the past, but this time it was different. I guess I didn't really want to be walking as a survivor. It was very emotional and I appreciate all of you who were there supporting me. Thank you to all who donated to Making Strides. They raised an unbeleivable amount of money!!

I am embarking on a fund raiser of my own. This is really more of a grassroots effort. I want to give back to the medical community that has taken such good care of me. I am teaching a Zumba class followed by a Pilates class at Oyster River High School for the next 4 Saturdays.( beginning tomorrow). The proceeds will go to a different local organization each Saturday. I have chosen the Well-Fit exercise program- a three month, free, individualized exercise program for cancer patients as the first beneficiary. Beyond the Rainbow Foundation, the Women's Wellness Clinic and the Exeter Center for Cancer Care will be the other recipients. Zumba is 9-10am followed by Pilates 10-11 am. Any donation will be welcome and no donation is too small!! Please join me if you can. Kathy

Kathy, It was an honor to walk with you and your family last week.
The Cancer Well fit program is such a great program. It has helped so many people get back on track after and during treatment.
Thanks for doing all you do Kathy!
