My mother's breast cancer donation site. I honestly hate doing this. posting up "asking" or "begging" for money. every where i turn i seem to see people doing it. asking for handouts. honestly im not. im just posting this to anyone out there who has a wife, girlfriend, daughter, grandmother, aunt, cuzin or whoever effected by breast cancer. i think all of you know the **** sux. everything from the shitty therapy to the way it mess' with poor womens mental health. so if you want and only if you want. please check out the link and donate if you want. to be honest my sister has been putting this on for years now and this is the first time i have donated so dont feel bad if u dont want to donate. i dont want to share a sad story and be "that guy" but my mother died in 1996 when i was 8 years old. and just trying to raise money for this is just something i do to look back on her with remembrance and grace.
so please if you will click on my name (Tony Quadros) and donate. if not thank you for your time and reading this.

thankyou JP i dont remember every detail of it (since i was only 8 years old at the time) but i remember her being in pain, the constant trips into boston, spending a lot of time in the hospital, the constant shots, loss of hair, weakness, it was horrible seeing her like that.
thx again
thx again

Tony, I made a donation on behalf of myself and my company. i saw your sisters total goal and she was $610. I wanted badly to make her goal happen, i wish times where better and i hope my donation helps get her to her goal and closer to finding a cure. please thank your sister for suporting this cause. I have no one in my family going through this (thank god) however i have many girls in my life from my mom, girlfriend, sister, 3 nieces and so on and because unselfish people like your sister do things like this, she could help save one of there lifes or some ones in the future.
good luck!!!
and I know times are hard, but everyone reading this can spare $5.00 for such a good cause. you could thank yourself in the future.

I've had to watch too many people go through what your mother did and odds are it will happen to someone close to all of us at some point in our lives.
