Always remembered

Everywhere
Even now, their faces are still clear in my mind.  The way their eyes sparkled when talking about their students. The way they smiled at each child who came their way.  I remember them.

Even now, I can hear their voices, telling stories about their days with their students. I remember them.

Even now, my late friends are still part of me.

These precious women left this earth when breast cancer took them.  

Did you know...

One in eight women will develop breast cancer.

In the U.S., there are over 3.1 million women with a history of breast cancer. This included women who have been diagnosed, have been treated, and/or are currently under treatment. 

Every person knows, will know, or has known a woman with breast cancer.

85% of breast cancer diagnoses occur in women who have absolutely no history of breast cancer in their family.

One out of one-thousand men will be diagnosed with breast cancer. 

Some of my friends were cured, but some were not. I remember both. Do you?


Recently, my mammogram results necessitated a needle biopsy. Results were benign, God's Hand with me all the way.  This will require frequent mammograms and ultrasound.
