Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer is no stranger to me. This is a cause near and dear to my heart. I lost my Mother to advanced Stage IV Breast Cancer when I was only seven years old. Sadly enough I don't remember too many good things about my Mom, I tend to just remember all the bad things --- her pain --- suffering --- my Dad giving her shots of morphine so she could just make it through the day somewhat comfortable. I watched with my family for over three years after my Mother was first diagnosed suffer until she found peace and departed this unbearable pain.

Thus this is an issue very clear to my older sister and myself to do regular monthly examinations and get a mammogram every year.

I have never had cancer but I have several close friends and also some online friends who are battling this war in hopes a cure will be found. We, as women, can not let our guard down....we must strive to see that the research is carried on from one generation to the next until a cure is discovered.

I would like to ask you if you or a loved one or just a good friend suffer from any stage of breast cancer please join in our effort to battle this disease. We have a online support group that exchanges views, medical news, and just general support for one another. Also we have a webring you may join provided you meet the requirement of the ring.
