The Robbery of a Smile

One simple question for you: DO YOU HAVE A WOMAN IN YOUR LIFE THAT YOU LOVE?

I watched one of the women in my life handle her battle with breast cancer with more STRENGTH and DETERMINATION and FAITH than I knew one person could possess. The only time I saw my sister Heather cry was when breast cancer robbed her of her ability to SMILE; Heather so loved to SMILE!

The muscles in her face no longer worked, and at that moment I thought to myself that I would do ANYTHING to prevent another woman in my life, or yours, from experiencing the same ROBBERY OF A SMILE!

We are nearly a week away from the most important breast cancer event in the world – THE SUSAN G. KOMEN GLOBAL RACE FOR THE CURE – and I stand before you asking one last time for your support.

Tonight, in an unprecedented Congressional Event on Capitol Hill, UNITED STATES SENATORS Tom Coburn, Kirsten Gillibrand, Mary Landrieu, Barbara Mikulski, Mark Pryor, Olympia Snowe, Debbie Stabenow, UNITED STATES REPRESENTATIVES Charles Boustany, David Camp, Marcy Kaptur, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, and Mark Schauer will stand together in support of the efforts of Team Heather…..

…..won’t you join them in making a donation today of any amount, and helping to stop the next ROBBERY OF A SMILE?
