While everything was well written, and while the author herself did a careful job remaining anonymous to most of her readers, I couldn’t help but cringe at some of the stuff she was writing about. Personal stuff. Stuff that, once it’s out there, you just can’t take back. Part of my cringing was due to the fact that about a year ago, I was right there with her.

It is my strong belief that only when people understand how the system REALLY works, will they be able to challenge it so they will get adequate care. One way I've been doing this is by posting ARTICLES ON THIS SITE that address the misinformation that is so often propagated by mainstream media.

With it come lots of pink ribbons and pink products, and lots of publicity advocating early detection through mammograms. Sen. Joe Biden is a staunch supporter of early detection. On his blog there is a video where he eloquently expresses his longstanding support of the cause. He calls this video "Sen. Joe Biden's Strategy for Combatting Breast Cancer." I hope you will watch it. As you might suspect, I have a different view of this topic than the one Sen. Biden espouses. I expressed my views in a comment following the video on his blog.
