fwiw, I liked the "from one survivor to another" beginning too.

and fwiw, about the pink ribbon thing, even though everyone knows it's breast cancer, I and several other breast cancer survivors I know HATE that it's *pink*. Pink is a color most strongly associated otherwise with infant girls. The breast cancer survivors I know are all well out of infancy......
