 My name is Susan McVeigh. I'm 44 years old, and my town is the city of Hackensack. And the reason I pink on is because I think that health education, breast cancer awareness, and overall well-being for women is so important these days. Women are becoming so much more of an important part of society, important part of the workforce, and we really need to take care of ourselves for our families, for ourselves, for our children, and for our communities. In my family, we have a long history of breast cancer, and I would like to make sure that I continue to take care of myself so that we can stop the progress, so that we take care of ourselves and don't have to have continuing problems in my family. Being the Chief Well-Being Officer for Hackensack, I really want to bring the women in my town awareness. I want to share with them how important it is to take care of themselves. The earlier you discover that there's breast cancer, the more likely you are to recover and have a full and wonderful life. You take that little bit of time for yourself annually, and then you have a longer life to live. I learned about Paint the Town Pink from an email I got from my health educator who is out of Hackensack, Moody and Health, and they told me about the campaign, and I thought, what a great thing to do for the City of Hackensack. We need to raise awareness, to bring these things to light in our community so that everyone can be involved and aware. So I thought it would be something wonderful for us to do.
