I started The Portly Grapes 10 years ago shortly after my dear friend, Cindy lost her battle with ovarian cancer. She fought with all she had. She went on clinical trials in the hopes that no one else has to fight with ovarian cancer. She was one of the strongest, smartest, funniest, most beautiful women I know. She was a "another mother" to my two daughters (who now have daughters of their own). We walk in honor of her and to Help Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer. We can use all the help we can get. Please join The Portly Grapes by walking/running with us or by supporting us with a donation. --Christine xoxo
