Holey Hearts!

So I feel like I'm in my final month of pregnancy.  You know when you get to that stage where you want your body back and you want to get the show on the road!  Well that is what it feels like right now.  I have been training since March and physically I'm ready....on the other hand emotionally ..... I don't know.  

Tonight I was presented with my official Tour de Rock jersey and it was tough not to let the tears flow (I had put mascara on for my first time in a few months!).  Anne, our teammate and oncologist nurse, spoke beautifully and really hit home when she said that every time a child with cancer in her care loses their battle, a hole is left in her heart.

She's right.  When mom lost her battle with ovarian cancer...a hole was left in my heart.  When Mike lost his battle...another hole was left.  

So people ask why I'm riding. It's an easy answer.

HOLES HURT!!!

Please support me and my holey heart.
DONATE NOW.

Thank you
Janis
