I've taken several over the years and it's an outstanding organization. Carol will be sorely missed. ------ Tess On threadpainting flowers: "How many colors are in a flower? ...

Komen organization, so it's possible she or her family had a particular focus on breast cancer. ------ “Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig.” -Robert Heinlein and Ann's father.

She was getting treatments and the community (the forum at QU) thought she was doing well. As Karla suggests, the family asking for donations suggests breast cancer, but I don't remember ever hearing that breast cancer was involved. ------ Tess On threadpainting flowers: "How many colors are in a flower? ...

Over her last few months it spread to most all her organs etc. But her first bout with cancer was breast cancer.. Although they did do a mastectomy. on and off over the years more cancers were found.. Most of them treatable until that last one .. So could be she did have breast cancer at one time.. or could be she like so many of us are big breast cancer supporters..
