Yow to miss remainder of season

Whether you care about sports or not, I'd like you to take a second to take a look at this:

Kay Yow is such an amazing lady - the impact she has on everyone around her is unbelievable. If you watch the ESPN video, the clips they show of the team are from a game last season where rather than wearing their traditional uniforms, NC State wore pink unis, and instead of their own names on the backs of their jerseys, each jersey said, "Yow."

My favorite sentence from either article?: "Yow has handled her long fight against the disease with grace, saying she hoped she could inspire others while also noting that she felt better when she was around her players."

I think everybody needs to know about this lady, whether you care about sports or not.
