I lost my daddy at age 51 as well. Our story is the same, it was too late when he went to the doctor. He lost his battle after great suffering. To sit and watch our loved ones in pain wrenches our hearts. The main thing I took my my daddy's death was early detection could have saved him. That is always my message. Please take responsibility for your own health.....go get tested, go get your mammograms!

I did do some other research though and found that this is the accurate story behind the ribbon. <br /><br />"History<br /><br />The first known use of a pink ribbon in connection with breast cancer awareness was in the fall of 1991, when the Susan G. Komen Foundation handed out pink ribbons to participants in its New York City race for breast cancer survivors.[1]<br />The pink ribbon was adopted as the official symbol of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month the next year, in 1992.[2] The pink ribbon was derived from the popular red ribbon for AIDS awareness. Alexandra Penney, the editor-in-chief of the women's health magazine Self, and breast cancer survivor Evelyn Lauder,[3] the senior corporate vice president at the cosmetics company Estée Lauder created a ribbon for the cosmetics giant to distribute in stores in New York City.<br />Estée Lauder and Self initially approached Charlotte Haley, who had began a peach-coloured ribbon campaign to press the National Cancer Institute to increase its budget for cancer prevention research. Haley refused to be part of what she felt was a commercial effort, so Estée Lauder and Self changed the color of their ribbon to light pink in 2005, to circumvent Haley's efforts to stop them.[4][5]<br />A pink and blue ribbon is sometimes used to symbolize breast cancer in men, which is relatively rare. The pink and blue ribbon was designed in 1996 by Nancy Nick, president and founder of the John W. Nick Foundation to bring awareness that "Men Get Breast Cancer Too!"[6]<br />[edit]Meaning<br /><br />The color pink is considered feminine in modern Western countries. It evokes traditional feminine gender roles, caring for other people, being beautiful, being good, and being cooperative.[2]<br />The pink ribbon represents fear of breast cancer, hope for the future, and the charitable goodness of people and businesses who publicly support the breast cancer movement.[7] It is intended to evoke solidarity with women who currently have breast cancer.<br />Breast cancer organizations use the pink ribbon to associate themselves with breast cancer, to promote breast cancer awareness, and to support fundraising.[8] Some breast cancer-related organizations, such as Pink Ribbon International,[9] use the pink ribbon as their primary symbol. Susan G. Komen for the Cure uses a stylized "running ribbon" as their logo.[10]<br />While specifically representing breast cancer awareness, the pink ribbon is also a symbol and a proxy of goodwill towards women in general.[11] Buying, wearing, displaying, or sponsoring pink ribbons signals that the person or business cares about women. The pink ribbon is a marketing brand for businesses that allows them to promote themselves with women and identify themselves as being socially aware.[12] Compared to other women's issues, promoting breast cancer awareness is politically safe.[13]"April https://www.blogger.com/profile/03025573986796373031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571501121522203810.post-33557013493292948492012-10-17T11:12:14.640-04:002012-10-17T11:12:14.640-04:00Wow!

Early detection for any type of cancer is ESSENTIAL! I lost my daddy at age 51, last year to stage 4 cancer. I begged him to go to the doctor for over a year. It was too late when he went. He died exactly 6 months from the day he was diagnosed and had one chemo and radiation treatment left to do. PLEASE get screened regularly ladies.
