"It is unlike any event you will ever attend. It is the 'Sisterhood of the Pink.' On one hand, you're kind of angry at the reason everyone has gathered. But, on the other hand, it really is a joyous event. The cancer survivors are celebrating every year of life and those that love and support them are celebrating with them."
