Grandma Shirlee

Today is a BIG day for Grandma Shirlee. Not only is it her birthday - it is also "final-surgery-day!"  I've told her this before, but today - on her birthday - she is the envy of SO MANY 16-18 year old girls (whose parents refuse to buy them implants for their birthdays).

Of course, my Mom's journey has been long & hard. She has battled through the pain and we couldn't be more proud of her.

Keep her in your thoughts today as she completes this final stage in her fight against breast cancer!

Happy birthday, Mama! I love you!

The Face of Cancer

October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the Clevenger Family is celebrating this year, too! My mom's road has been long & hard - but she is feeling better than ever and looking pretty HOT!

She is also one of the "faces" of the KCH Cancer Center in Warsaw! If you are lucky enough to drive through my hometown - you may see her face on a billboard...or in the halls of the hospital {hope you're not there as a patient}...she's also on their website! Click HERE to see her story!

So raise your glasses {I'll raise my iced tea} and join me in celebrating my mom...and all of the women who have fought breast cancer, as we remember those who have died fighting.
