that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month?  Well, it IS in case you were confused.  About a week ago, I  added a new badge to my sidebar stating as such…

Breast cancer has special meaning in my life…  My mom is a survivor.  I was actually born AFTER her radical mastectomy…even more shocking was that I was born within that critical 5 year window.  My parents met AFTER mom’s cancer.

All that being said…  Be aware of your “girls”…know your body… something seems odd…get it checked!!
I had my first mammogram at age 26 as a baseline… Nothing to be afraid of. Take charge of your health, of your body…it’s the only one you have!

I will now step down off my soap box and return you to your regularly scheduled programing…thank you and good night.
