Thank you, Schaumburger! I'll keep the new avatar for the month of October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness month. It's for all of us who have been paid a visit by this nasty cancer. I DO believe that research is helping to find new treatments and, hopefully, one of these days a cure. Had my cancer happened 25-30 years ago I might not be here today. Girls, get your mammograms every year, keep your immune system healthy, and support fund raising efforts as much as you can. Guys, we value your support but don't forget that this cancer happens to men, too. Be aware of any changes and get yourself to the doctor ASAP. Hubby dealt last year with prostate cancer and it seems to be epidemic, also. How about some real recognition of THIS cancer that seems to be affecting so many men. Maybe I will change my avatar to a blue ribbon for the month of December!
