Tammy Caban's TaTa's

This is not MY story, it is the story of my breast cancer. My breast cancer is but a part of my wonderful and exciting life. I was a survivor even before I was diagnosed. I won't EVEN consider the alternative.... :) Now I realize I am also a Warrior.

The Pink Ribbon


The Pink Ribbon stands for friendships,
too many to count.
For strength no disease can ever surmount.
It celebrates grace in the shadow of pain,
Bringing us together in an unbreakable chain.
A symbol of hope and our goal, which is pure,
Never to rest until we find a cure.

Make a Difference

If you think research is expensive you should try disease.  Funds are needed to raise awareness and find a cure.  Find a cause that you are passionate about and share that passion.  Donate, volunteer, do something.
Be a part of a cause & solution.  Help find a cure.
