I didn't say cancer isn't a big deal. It is a big depressing deal that most of us will have to deal with. Constantly throwing one particular type in our faces ... how is that helping? It's just depressing. "Save the ta-tas." If it runs in your family you want to be safe and prevent cancer, you might be smartest to have prophylactic mastectomies. But does that mean you want to announce your decision to the world? Or can we keep these discussions to our doctors' offices and with our immediate support systems again? Then we could go about living while we still can.
Is it normal that I'm sick of pink ribbons and the whole campaign?
