Why I have a pink ribbon link, on my blog.

Hi everyone,

You're probably wondering why the pink ribbon on my blog, right? Well, reason being is that in late August of 2005, my mother lost a breast to cancer. Thankfully, the cancer was caught in time.

Mom had a rare form of cancer, where it was encapsulated. Thank God, that the cancer bypassed her lymph nodes. Another bit of good news that Mom got almost 2 months after her mastectomy, was that she wasn't going to be needing chemotherapy. I'm so grateful that my mom has an excellent prognosis.

I encourage all of you ladies out there to go and get a mammogram, especially if cancer runs in your family.
