In honor and respect for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I give you pink. It was actually the suggestion of Mrs. Blandings, and a very thoughtful one, so I'm in. Far too many of us have someone close to us who has suffered with this disease, and I am so fortunate to also know someone very dear to me who has survived. She is the co-founder of Prepare to Live and I am proud to say, one of my best friends. If you know anyone diagnosed with cancer, tell them to go to Prepare to Live for amazing support and invaluable resources. Bring on the power and hope of pink.
