Two weeks ago, Leah Warner got the scariest news of her life.
“I’m just trying to process it,” says Warner of a stage one, grade one breast cancer diagnosis.
She had a large team of supporters Sunday at the CIBC Run for the Cure at Victoria Park in London, Ont.
After her recent diagnosis, her husband Jay and friends started fundraising and came up with $15,000 in just a couple of weeks.
“I noticed something and went to my doctor,” says Warner.
“He didn’t think it was anything but he pushed and it turned out to be something. I found it early so people definitely need to trust your instincts.”
Returning to an in-person event for the first time in three years, more than 800 people packed the park for either a one km walk, or a five km run.
