Round Rock woman urges feds to protect Earth’s environment
Round Rock Leader
On April 19, Round Rock resident Amy Huff joined 15 other cancer survivors and survivors of chronic diseases in Washington, D.C. to bring attention to the Global Conservation Act of 2010.
For three days, group members met with their respective states’ representatives to garner support for the bill. Huff was among the group because of her friendship with Angela Patterson, a fellow cancer survivor who blogged about her journey through cancer and treatments. It was Patterson’s blog that caught the attention of the Pew Charitable Trust, a non-profit organization based out of Washington, D.C. that hosted the group while they were there.
Huff was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006, when she was pregnant.
