Two years ago I lost my dearest friend, Karen Dunaitis, to a virulent, hereditary form of breast cancer.

We often talked about doing a shirt for breast cancer awareness, using the word "intrepid" and its definition, "characterized by resolute fearlessness, fortitude and endurance". That's how she viewed herself: as an intrepid warrior against breast cancer. And she was. I never thought cancer could beat someone like her.

But it did. And now, at last, to honor her, I've done her shirts. 10% of all proceeds from the sale of Karen's Intrepid shirts goes to Komen for the Cure.

The pink ribbon motif is printed on the left sleeve, along with a dragonfly, the totem she loved. Like a dragonfly, she loved to be near the water. Dragonflies carry dreams, she used to say.

My dream is to find a cure.

Kim Williams, a breast cancer survivor, models the pink tee. Kim was a good friend of Karen's, and I'm proud to call her my friend, too.
