I am dedicating this post to Kody Beach.
Dear Kody,
We never met, but I thought of you often. I thought of your family, as they flew to different places to get you treatment for melanoma. You and I shared that horrible disease, but with a different outcome. I sit here today on my computer, and you passed away in October of 2015.
Tears roll down my fave as I write a dedication to you on the AIM @ Melanoma page for the 3rd annual 5k walk / fun run. I wish I could do more for you and your family.
I will never quite understand why I survived and you did not. You were SO STRONG and YOUNG. YOU SHOULD BE HERE RIGHT NOW!!
Thank you for renewing my desire to FIGHT MELANOMA with everything I CAN! You and all the other's who have passed away from melanoma will not be forgotten! Those of us who have beat the beast will continue to be LOUD. I know there are people who think I should "get over it" but I won't.
I will continue to walk in honor of YOU and the others who died from melanoma.
Heavenly HUGS to a you Kody,
LOVE, fellow melanoma warrior, Steph
