wow....
research, development, early detection thru random check-up (free or not) cost money.... changing our "clan member" name to pink isn't going to make a difference. money does!
it's cool you're ok with just awereness but i guess some of us would like to spend some money so people who cant pay doctor bills can get checked out if they have or have not got cancer. any cancer.....
i'm already donating here in Belgium monthly to the red cross because i know they do free check ups for people that cant afford it....
as you said...early detection is necessary so it can be treated quickly and with a good % of recovery... think we all need to decide if we want to donate or not...but maybe for the ones that are willing to do it, sending one big amount at once is going to help quicker than lots of us seperatly.
i lost 3 friends in the last 5 years...they didn't have the money, neither their family to performe a routine check-up. 1 was one of my best girl friends...she had breast cancer.... after that happend i started donating, i feel like i'm contributing so maybe i can save one life out there....but why shouldn't i do it? i can afford it....at least i try to make this work.
