I knew a gal, the niece of my best friend, who got breast cancer (doctors didn’t believe the lump was “anything”) and died before she was old enough for her first legal drink in a bar.

It is a miserable thing to watch a female endure.

I wish Teresa Heinz-Kerry a speedy recovery.

There are very sad cases out there. In my training we went to autopsies of cancer patients to see the primary tumor location and the metastases. The first autopsy I observed was on a 17 year old who had died of ovarian cancer. It was heartbreaking.

The Arkansas Susan Komen 5K Run this year in Little Rock was lead by a twelve year old breast cancer survivor.
