AS I walked in my third Race for the Cure, , the second time with a pink shirt instead of white, I said to my surgeon, who walked with me, "There will never be a cure for breast cancer because there's just too much damn money to be made."
She agreed that more people seem to be hanging their hat on the pink tree these days than before.

In our "survivor goody bag" one year, McDonald's donated a pin with a pink "M" on it and an exercise CD - the exercisers were animated! Can you believe it? If McDonald's actually gave a frog's fat a$$ about our health, don't you think they'd just close?
I'll take my special cynic pill today and say, "Keep your pink step and just find me the damn cure."
