What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer
is so limited .
It cannot cripple love,
It cannot shatter hope,
It cannot corrode faith,
It cannot
destroy peace,
It cannot kill friendship,
It cannot invade the soul,
It cannot silence courage,
It
cannot steal eternal life,
It cannot suppress memories,
It cannot conquer the Spirit.

http://www.cbs13.com/video/?id=475@kovr.dayport.com We are two friends,
Anne Jacobs, and Lynn Keane. Anne and I have been good friends and neighbors for over a decade and a half. We started our
website as a fundraising tool in 2005 when I was raising money for the Susan G. Komen Foundation as a part of my competition
in the Hawaii Ironman. Raising close to $14,000, we were amazed by the outpouring of support from our friends, family, and
community. It is incredible what we can do together. Anything is possible
Breast cancer is very personal to us.
Anne was initially diagnosed with breast cancer in February of 2003. She had a reoccurrence showing metastatic breast cancer
in November of 2004. Her cancer is now treated like a chronic disease and she will always be undergoing some form of
treatment. She has found a way to live positively with her diagnosis. My mother, Jan, and my sister, Lori, have faced
and survived breast cancer. My husband's sister, Rosita, lost her battle with breast cancer in 2006. She fought her battle
valiantly and we miss her every day. We are more committed and determined than ever to end breast cancer in our lifetime.
Our goal as friends is to make a difference in the lives of women who are facing the diagnosis of breast cancer at
any stage. We want to be a part of the cure by raising money for research, screening, and education. Breast cancer is now
a mostly curable disease. We expect it to be a completely curable disease in our lifetime.
If you have been diagnosed
we want you to know that you are not alone and we hope you will find the information on our site to be helpful.
