October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. There should be a campaign every month to create awareness of all cancers in each of its many deadly forms. Every person I know has a cancer story, some filled with hope and lessons learned and others filled with loss and sadness.
Update: October 14: Last night a friend of mine and I went to a great play called Booby Trap - the breast show in town at the Hudson Theatre in Hollywood, CA.
It's a ".. collection of personal monologues and songs all dealing with a woman's relationship with her breast." Many of the stories really connected with me.
Proceeds from the play will go to weSpark, Cancer Support Center, which offers free services to breast cancer patients and families. I bought a tee shirt, too, and am glad to contribute to this effort and have some fun too!
More updates throughout the month!!
