It's around the corner: the 17th Annual Cans for a Cure!

I love and fret about this time of year. I fret, because it's so important. Raising money for the Dempsey Center to help those fighting breast cancer. So many people have been involved... so many people have been lost.

It's the least we can do to help those who are in the fight of their lives.

I love this event. It puts me in touch with Mainers who have such good hearts. It makes me think of my mom, who I lost to breast cancer, and it raises money to help people...like my mom.

Please help any way you can.
