OneWalk is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year continued from p.12 duction carcinoma.” Ironically, the cancer was not in the cyst, but hiding behind it. “The cancer was pretty aggressive,” she says. Mullin pushed doctors for a double mas- tectomy. She went through four rounds of chemotherapy and is now on an IV infusion every three weeks of Herceptin.She is waiting for reconstruction surgery. Mullin was one of the first few patients to be part of Halton Health Care Service’s new fast-tracking program for cancer patients at Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital. “Its been phenomenal,” she says. Recently divorced, Mullin says this jour- ney she’s travelled after being diagnosed with cancer has been difficult. But, she quickly adds that she has a huge network of sup- porters, including her mother, sister and two daughters, who are 18 and 20, in addition to friends, including the people from Power Yoga Canada. “You have to be grounded,” says Mullin, referring to her attitude in fighting cancer. “And breathe deep.” In spite of all the adversity that Mullin has faced, she has been motivated by the expres- sion — “I can and I will.” She saw the words written in a journal, and they resonated with her. Mullin nervous about walk Although she has participated in the Rex- all OneWalk to Conquer Cancer many times, Mullin knows a lot has changed, including her stamina. The 25-km walk is ambitious, she says, adding that she is still in care. But, Mullin says there are supports built into the walk and rides are available for peo- ple who aren't able to finish the walk. This year a team led by friend Vicki Fid- dler will be walking in honour and support of Mullin. Over the years, Mullin says, Fiddler has raised a tremendous amount of money benefiting the Princess Margaret Cancer Cen- tre. The 2016 Rexall OneWalk to Conquer Cancer raised $6.5 million. And since 2003, supporters have raised more than $162 mil- lion, to date. This year’s walk is the 15th anniversary of the event. For more information, visit www.onewalk.
