You've obviously never been close to someone suffering from breast
cancer. *Otherwise, you'd know it's about saving lives, not tits.

Maybe you should listen a little harder when they say "I'm a breast
cancer survivor."

Saving the 'Ta-Ta's is a common theme among breast cancer survivors.
My daughter has a license plate saying much the same. It's about
saving lives *and* Ta-Ta's. Will you also tell me I've never been
close to someone with breast cancer.

It's interesting when people start pontificating about about breast
cancer. They type my younger sister came up with at the age of 42 was a
genetic form with an 80% recurrence rate within 5 years. She was at
stage 4. She opted for the most radical treatment, bi-lateral radical
mastectomy, to ensure that the cancer did not reoccur.

Then about 18 months later my older sister was found to have the same
form of breast cancer. She was lucky because her's was at stage 3. She
opted for the most radical treatment too because the recurrence rate was
still 80% within 5 years.

So, JPS, when you talk about it not being about saving the ta-tas you
are wrong. You are completely wrong. If you developed testicular cancer
at the age of 30 and they had to cut off your balls leaving you a unic
your view would be different.

Early detection and treatment of breast cancer is important.

Perhaps then you have no problem with continuing the funding for
Planned Parenthood? The right-wingers want to defund that
organization.

What a pinhead. Saving ta-tas sounds like a juvenile joke.

Then he goes on to describe how his sister had a radical mastectomy. I
wouldn't call that saving the ta-tas, that's saving a life.

It's like calling your kid's penis a pee-pee. This is cancer and
cancer doesn't just take ta-tas, it kills. You silly little juveniles
want to make it into something cute, be my guest.

He sounds like a low-class thug to me.
