Our department lost an amazing woman today. She succumbed to breast cancer and it's ugly cousin mets. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month. Please, I urge you, check your self. GET CHECKED! Don't let finances get in the way - if you need assistance, contact your local health department or American Cancer Society.

Salut to my friend Joy; a loving wife, mother, grandmother, friend, confidant, x-ray technologist, and scrabble professional! Joy always knew WHICH erotica to waste your time with! Hugs to her high school sweetheart and husband Randy. Joy will be missed.

Always remembered, never forgotten, salut to all the warriors who are facing, fighting, beating, and refusing to give up until their day is due!

    So sorry for your loss, hugs to you and her family. Breast cancer is certainly nothing to take lightly. Runs in my family too, so you bet I take it seriously.

    Sorry for your loss. Breast Cancer and mets has invaded our family for the last 11 years and it's not a fun journey. Luckily, my sister is still fighting the battle and doing a pretty good job at it right now, so we appreciate every day we have with her. Again, I am sorry for your loss.
