Cookie's Cause
|
Our dear friend Kristin Manojlovic Gentilini (aka Cookie) was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in June 2015. The same summer, she traveled to Peru. In 2016, she traveled to China. In 2017, she traveled to Norway with her daughter Justine and to the Bahamas with her daughter Lara. In 2018, she traveled to Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia. In the winter of 2019, she and Justine went skiing in Colorado. That summer, she watched Lara receive her PhD; moved her out of her 5th-floor apartment in Manhattan; and drove a moving truck with all of Lara’s belongings more than 15 hours to St. Louis. Needless to say, she never stopped pursuing happiness for herself and those around her despite her battle. She didn’t miss a single beat or utter a single complaint, even when undergoing chemotherapy or driving herself to the city every day for weeks to receive radiation before beginning TM. Even during one of her last weeks in the hospital, she continued to look on the bright side, always telling us how lucky she was for a room with a view. Kristin passed away on October 16, 2019, only a few weeks before her 56th birthday and 31st wedding anniversary. We walk in loving honor of Cookie, and for all those warriors who are fighting cancer or who have lost their valiant battle.
