Ada Luz Vasquez was my inspirational angel. Ada was diagnosed with breast cancer in July 2003 and succumbed to her illness on August 6, 2004, two weeks shy of her 50th birthday. Throughout her fight she never showed fear nor complained of unfairness. She embraced her Christian belief and took a proactive approach to share and encourage all the women in her circle. Her mantra was “love yourself and your neighbor with the utmost unconditional love that will instill hope and willingness for change to a better future”.
During her last hours, Ada passed on to me a remarkable gift ; the gift of fortitude. She wanted me to continue the fight of bringing awareness to all women to take a proactive approach in knowing, embracing and caring for their body, spirit and mind. It all start with prevention, take one step everyday to be a happier healthier you! Walk more, eat healthier, get your yearly physical exams, get to know your body, start a woman’s support group, reach out to someone who is in need of emotional support, love your family and neighbors and most importantly forgive those who have caused you harm.
