Pinks of Strength

Being a fan of anything pink, I guess if I was going to get cancer the breast cancer kind was the one. Thank goodness it's a pink ribbon! With all the confusion going on right now with the wacky new recommendations about screening it's making me see red! But those of us who've been down that road, diagnosed a decade or two before they even recommend checking... I think we'll stay vigilant and encourage our sisters, mothers, daughters and friends to do the same.

I can't help but think the insurance industry has some finger or two in this pot and their stirring it in their favor to reduce coverage and costs. I'm not a cynical person but I'm telling you something about this whole thing has a huge stench! So I encourage my sisters bound by that pink ribbon. Use your women's intuition, it's far better than anything any panel of paid monkeys can give you. As always you must be your biggest advocate!

I'm a big fan of the Warriors in Pink by Ford. They're message is a great one and it started the same year I was diagnosed. Be a fighter and look good doing it in our cool PINK stuff. Someday I will own that black Mustang with hot pink stripes down the side. Thank you Ford for joining the fight and making us girls look even more tough!
