"An Underground Guide To The
Breast Cancer Walk"
This guide was written by Larry
Roshfeld; a multi-event participant who has so much
passion for the cause. We're glad to have had the chance
to meet him on an event and now call him friend. The
2010 guide is hot off the presses and will help with any
questions you might have when you register to do a
multiple day/long distance walking event!

Where do I begin?
I guess I’ll begin at the beginning.
In August of 2000, my sister, Christine, was diagnosed
with breast cancer at the age of 35 years old. I will
never forget, days after the lumpectomy, receiving the
call from my sister saying “It’s cancer”. I felt as
though someone punched me in the stomach because I lost
the air to speak. I recovered enough to respond and say,
“Ok, so how do we fight this?” because there was no
other option other than fighting it. I have often
thought many times, as I look back on those months at
the beginning of all of this, that perhaps my sister had
a strength that had never been shown to anyone before;
including herself. I hung up the phone and all that was
running through my head was “Oh my God, my sister has
cancer. She is my 35 year old sister with a husband and
two little girls and she has breast cancer.” It scared
me. It scared me because the only other experience I’ve
ever had with breast cancer was with my friend Michele’s
mother, Susan. I remember Susan as a kind and wonderful
woman with a terrific sense of humor who seemed as
though her mastectomy didn’t faze her. I’m sure it did,
but she never let on. She was my friend’s mom. She was
my friend’s really COOL mom who was a beautiful spirit
on this earth. She succumbed to the disease in October
30, 1984 and became a beautiful spirit not of this
earth. It was 22.5 years ago in October - Breast Cancer
Awareness Month...read
