Singer Melissa Etheridge was diagnosed with breast cancer this month. Because of early detection and treatment, her doctor believes her prognosis is good. To help increase breast cancer awareness, Melissa Etheridge has given her support to the Pink Bracelet Fund:
"The fans of Melissa Etheridge would like to show our support in the next big challenge in her life, and for the women that are fighting and have survived Breast Cancer. We will be selling specially designed Breast Cancer Awareness Bracelets inscribed with a famous MLE quote, "Be Strong"™ The silicone/rubber bracelets are ready for sale. We have set up a special fund for this project.
A special collectable Breast Cancer Awareness bracelet will be made in honor of Melissa Etheridge. The pink bracelet will have "Be Strong-MLE"™ inscribed on it along with the Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon.
All proceeds will go to the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation aid in the fight against breast cancer in MLE's Honor. The cost will be $5.00 US per piece. A first round production of 25,000 pieces will be offered for sale."

I am so sorry to hear of your breawt cancer but my self was diagnosed in 2002 with grade 3 breast cancer at 33 years old i understand EXACTLY what you are going through and the more support and possitive vibes cant go wrong, unlike you i had a mestectomy and nearly 6 months of keamo. don't let the keamo scare you i am a very positive person (as i think you are too) i have 3 sons and i was not going any were either like you! its not a death sentence even thouth if i had this condition 25 years ago i would have died a horrible death my doctor had told me
well i am sooooooooooo good (cancer free even though no one will confirm till 5 years) now did the keamo breast recoonstruction very recent like 8 weeks ago. you propbably won't even read this but i know when i was diagnosed i just wanted to know what really happens keamo etc from some one who has gone through it i live in australia but if you did by any chance want to know any thing just ask WE ARE ALL SURVIVERS!
