Cancer Awareness - Let's continue to support this cause after the month is done!


I woke up with the phone ringing – I completely forgot that the A.C. man was coming at 7:30 a.m.  Boy oh Boy, did I run my little fanny off!!

By the way, today’s weigh-in is up but let’s just say in ounces and not pounds.

This month has celebrated 25 years of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Cancer strikes everybody, old, young, thin, heavy, white or black, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, etc.  It ravishes its unfortunate victims.  No matter where you live. 

There are so many wonderful groups of people (from all walks of life) who donate their time.  These people not only give financially, they walk for cancer, do car washes, carnivals, telethons, fundraisers and write books (all or most of the proceeds are given away).  Susan G. Komen Foundation does so much, in addition to the other thousands of people and foundations that contribute yearly.

My mom had breast cancer (as well as colon cancer).  She passed away 12 years ago.  As a family, we are very aware of the heartache, depression and pain that go along when the horrible “C” word comes into a home.

Please if you or anyone you know has anything and I mean anything, see your Doctor Now Don’t Wait!!

Have a great day and smile a lot.
