I’m joining the Disability March online because I can’t join the actual March in NYC. I have metastatic breast cancer that has spread to my bones and makes standing or walking for any period of time very painful. While I’m one of the very few who have lived with this terminal illness for over 13…

I stand with every woman at the march and every woman who can’tattend.  I’ve got your back ladies as I know you have mine. I am proud to be a liberal, web designing, reiki master, Obama loving democrat. http://www.page9.com
