It’s a milestone anniversary today, it marks 25 years since I had my bone marrow transplant to cure CML…aka my 81st birthday. Some days it feels like yesterday that I went through everything and some days it feels like a lifetime ago. It’s made me want to live my life to the fullest and give back whenever I can. Today is a day that I will celebrate for the rest of my life. 💚🧡

Hey guys! Long time no talk! So, here’s the deal: I’m doing a walk for Light The Night, I’ve joined the Wawa team, and I’m trying to raise money. Of course, no pressure to donate, but if you’re in a position where you can, it’s going to a wonderful place.
If you haven’t heard of them, The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding research, finding cures and ensuring access to treatments for blood cancer patients. They are the largest funder of research to advance cures and advocate for related policies at both state and federal levels. Those efforts have helped to remove barriers to care for cancer patients. Thanks to them, we’ve seen increases in federal research funds and quicker review and approval processes for new therapies. They are also the leading source of free blood cancer information, education, and support for patients, survivors, families, and healthcare professionals.
I had the pleasure of being able to go to the Light The Night Walk last year. I’ll admit, in the beginning, it was just one of those work things you do when trying to advance in a company. Networking, trying to get your name out there. I went with the intention to go, meet a couple of corporate big wigs, be in a few pics and get the heck outta there. Except, I ended up being one of the last people to leave. I was taken back by the absolute beauty and unity of this event. Once it got dark and the walk began, it was beyond incredible to see everybody’s lanterns lit up, and see everybody so passionate. I got to hear so many people’s stories, these people so brave and strong, and I knew I was taking part in something. So, now having witnessed firsthand the beauty of this walk and what it stands for, I hope to take part in this long after I leave Wawa, and I want to do everything I can to support this cause.

My second year joining walk for #lighthenightau .. Instead of fun, out of nowhere suddenly I don't know why it become so touched.. Light the Night is the Leukaemia Foundation’s beautiful evening lantern walk, where Australians come together and transform the darkness into a sea of glowing light to give hope to all those impacted by blood cancer.. It's a night to walk beside those facing their own blood cancer journey, and to remember loved ones lost.. Each coloured lantern carries a special meaning.. Gold - To remember loved ones lost to blood cancer White - For your own blood cancer journey Blue - To show community support for all those affected (Which is the color I choose to carry😗) #lightthenightau #lightthenightwalk #lightthenight2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/B3hIar6AfMc6f5y6_EZwfxwm5HmWiGkZ8XdR4w0/?igshid=1rwogo04mhw8g

Today is the start of Leukemia Awareness Month! For all my fellow Leukemia and blood cancer fighters and survivors, I salute you! As a 24 year survivor after having a life saving Bone Marrow Transplant, I want to give back and help other people who are going through what I did. I am raising money and awareness for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society by walking in their Light the Night walk next month. For anyone who can and would like to sponsor me this year, I would be very grateful. 🧡

Felt so glad to be a part of @christinavega_ ‘s 5th annual #makeoversfordonations event for @leukemialymphomasociety ♥️ I can’t even begin to express how amazing and heart-warming it felt to see a room full of women supporting one another and getting together in the beauty and fashion industry to strive and fight our everyday battles, nonetheless, to help our loved one’s get through their toughest battle of ending cancer. I am beyond proud of you Christina!!! . . . Oh! I also forgot to mention I hope to see you there Thursday October 17 at 5:30 pm Rain 🌧or Shine ☀️ we will be gathering together to support one another for any of those who we have lost but we continue to fight in their name for their battle and refuse to believe we ever lost, or support someone who has survived this horrible illness. Come and join us at the Seaport District NYC. Can’t make that one? Don’t worry there are 2 other dates you can go ahead and join! #SeaportDistrictNYC #ChristinaVega #FashnMe #leukemialymphomasociety #leukemiaawarenessmonth #touchedbyaloss #lightthenight #lightthenightwalk . . . Nevertheless, although we were all there yesterday for such a horrible illness , I am so happy to say that I felt great positivity, energy, and nothing but good vibes from this event. It was a pleasure getting to meet all of you dolls and for those who I’ve already met, it was great seeing you there! It’s so nice to know that there are great people out there willing to support you in your fight 💪🏽 @anjucey_curls @curlz_n_kickz @itsjesperez @dopeprosper @crisleidymessana (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3AbFR_Jt3U/?igshid=twngdi0yvlop

As a philanthropic entrepreneur that helps empower people find their voice through social media, or to be the change in being healthier versions of themselves and finally I accessorize their wardrobe giving them the confidence to be best empowered version of themselves. I am very passionate about helping people improve the quality of their life as well as supporting great causes. Over the weekend I was at the @lightthenightva walking for a team member that is a survivor of leukemia. How do you give back? #fatimasumar #designsbyfatimasumar #firefoxmediaa #givingback #makingadifference #socialgood #lightthenightwalk
