The event raised about 1.2 million dollars - wow! The LAF website is showing that Ryan raised $1785.00 right so far (hurrah!) but we know that number does not include Microsoft's matching or donations that were sent via regular mail yet (give it time, and we know they'll show up). THANK YOU to everyone who supported us. We're glad to have been able to do this event, to see the survivors there, and to know that the money is going to help kick cancer's a**.
Love,
Kristina

Common Breast Cancer Myths
The first myth pertaining to this disease is that it only affects women.
Second myth that is associated with this disease is that if one has found a lump during an examination, it is cancer.
Third is that it is solely hereditary
The next myth associated with breast cancer is downright ridiculous. Would you believe, that in this day and age, some individuals still think that breast cancer is contagious?
Conversely, some individuals foolishly believe that breast size determines whether or not one gets cancer.
Finally, another myth that is associated with this disease is that it only affects older people. This is not so. Although the chance of getting breast cancer increases with age, women as young as 18 have been diagnosed with the disease.
