Just loved all these pictures! I didn’t know what today was until I saw it on twitter. I’m standing up in memory of my mom, and for me.

I love this post and love seeing people show their support. We can all stand up to cancer together.
Agree! Let’s cure this awful disease – Now!
Thanks for submitting a photo, Katy! xo
I stand up for my Grandma Montgomery, great-uncle Austin Roark, my aunt Penny (8-11-60 to 8-8-12), my Dad…and me. (breast cancer dx 6-8-10).
I now stand up for you, your Dad, your aunt Penny, your great-uncle Austin Roark, and your Grandma Montgomery! I hope you are doing well these days, Shana!
I am doing well, Wendy! The side-effects of having been on Tamoxifen for the past 2.5 years have me moving a bit slower than I would like though. Still not back up to where I was strength-wise before all this started, but I hope to get back there someday.
May you have a wonderful week!!
Thank you for doing this – I’m sharing on FB, because every bit of awareness counts. I stand up for my grandparents, my aunts, my mom, and everyone who’s had to deal with this terrible disease.
Thank you for the comment! I now stand up for your grandparents, aunts, mom, and everyone else too! xo
You rock girlie. Seriously, you amaze me. Thank you for doing this.

Thanks for doing this Wendy and being the inspiration for my own post for World Cancer Day today.
It was great to participate in any way I could.
Thank you for participating!! xo
Oh wow! I suck so bad! I’m sorry I let yesterday pass by! My sweet grandmother who was the light of my life surrendered to cancer. It was a very long time ago but I still miss her.
I’m late getting to this, but I want to say this is incredible, and I stand up for you, for my grandma, and for a little girl named Kyra whom I never met but who became an angel today.
