This is where it all began

It was 2011, coming up on our favorite family holidays when I got the call that changed the course of our life. I had cancer. Having just come up for air after the loss of my beautiful mom a few years earlier from breast cancer, this diagnosis took me to my knees. But it was in this deep fear that I knew I had to do more and put the tools that had had been building to work. I founded Wings of Karen (named after my mom) to lift not only my spirits but all those around me that were facing these same fears. Fear was replaced by action of raising funds for breast cancer research in a very direct and local approach. This video was the first one we produced in effort to share our vision and goals. Each word and image thoughtfully laid to express what was my new course....funding a cure, through RESEARCH.
