Pinktober

October is loved by many and also hated in the breast cancer community. I have a love/hate relationship with the color Pink. October should be about EDUCATION not awareness we are all aware of breast cancer. Go read a great post from Chemobrain it is  agreat breakdown of all the facts. Also read the breakdown of Dirty Pink Underbelly another great post. I didn't find my breast cancer through awareness I found it or my husband did I should say through self awareness we knew something was wrong once we felt the lump through education I realized I knew I needed to be proactive with getting tested. We need to teach woman and men to be proactive with their health. Today everything is too cut and dry and that needs to change also.
