Beckys post is so cute. I feel that it is so unfair that I know people who drink all the time and are healthy and I have always been a social drinker and I end up with cancer. We have given up so much already that I think a glass at wine at dinner is a reward for what you have already been thru. Red wine is better so they say but who really knows. It is all a crap shoot. Becky I hope you intend to have some champagne at that Sept. wedding. Be happy and don't feel guilty for a glass of wine. What doesn't cause cancer? Enjoy.,Eat, drink and be merry. (In moderation of course). God bless. Darlene
