This has been such a crazy and life changing year! My 20th birthday is this Saturday and Friday is actually my last Radiation treatment!! Lets be real.. best birthday present-EVER! I cannot even begin to thank you girls enough. I am so grateful for all of the positive thoughts, words of wisdom, and support you all have given me over these past few months. After everything that has happened this year, I wanted to do something to make a difference, no matter how small it is. I started a personal fundraising page on the Susan G Komen website and have sent it out to as many people as possible! My birthday wish is that no one else would have to experience what all of us have gone through. I am hoping that with this page, I am raising the awareness and funds to take a step in that direction. This is the link to the page http://www.info-komen.org/site/TR?pxfid=167236&fr_id=1120&pg=fund&et=353L6qkoyj6XMTkIbWWUcg..&s_tafId=49942. Pass it on to anyone you think might be interested!! Continuing to pray for you all!!

Kat

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY
    Hi Kat,

    Congratulations on leaving your teens behind! I am so happy you are doing well. I know that your sorority sisters have been a great source of support. Having your last radiation treatment the day before your birthday is just a super bonus. May your 20th year be a whole lot better than your 19th year was. IRENE

    I agree with Lorrie
    Kat,

    Lorrie said it the best. I also wish you 70 more fantastic birthdays. You are very wise for being very young and you have much to offer and give to our world. You are going to need those additional 70 years to spread your warmth and your knowledge.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KAT

    Lots of Hugs

    You are a strong and courageous young Women -- Your family must be so proud of you and the completion of your journey. Did I mention how wonderful it is to have you focus on finding a cure by fund raising. KUDOS!

    Keep up your amazing spirit. I loved your page, how
    very thoughtful of you. It's important to get the word
    out that even young women can be diagnosed with
    breast cancer
