Breast cancer has been a part of my life since I was 13, which is when my sister, Debbie, was diagnosed when she was 24. My first scare was when I was 25. Fortunately, that's all it was a scare. Now, thirty years later, Debbie is still fighting cancer. And I'm fighting for a cure for her and all the women in my family, including me. At 43, with no kids and my family history, the search for a cure seems ever more important.

I work in a creative retail environment, so I consistently have my eye out for potential Team Tough Tittie paraphernalia. I'm also lucky to have a lot of creative inspiration close at hand. (Thanks Linda and Patty!)

Through my friend, roommate, and former co-worker, Denise, I became involved with her mother Linda's, Bunko Babes, aka Boobie Girls. It was there that I met Melissa (Miss the Fabulous). Now we live only blocks away from each other, which makes it very convenient when we want to work on 3 Day walk costumes all night, all year long.

Pink dominates my life so much, last year I bought a little pink house! I enjoy decorating and fixing it up. Spending time with friends and family is important to me. I am the sixth of seven children. I'm in the middle of four brothers, which forced me to become the fysty1.

I do this in support of my sister, and in memory of my dad, who I lost to cancer in 2001.
