Vancouver news

Thunderbird Stadium looked like a sea of pink this weekend.

This weekend was the fifth weekend to end breath cancer.

1,600 participants have run the 60 km, two-day walk. And over 4.1 millions $ has been raised.
One of the most important events of this week-end was Bif Naked's show on Saturday night. It was her first performance since her breath cancer had been diagnosed.
It is said that one in nine women will get it in her life. And this walk allows to win money for finding preventions and detections.
This year there were more men and young people than preceding years. So it's believed that they feel themeselves more concerned.
And I think it's a good things !

I was amazed when I heard that Bif Naked had breast cancer. She's young and very healthy (a vegan who practices yoga and runs regularly). It just goes to show you that any woman may be affected by the disease.
