Dana,
I am always amazed at how people who don't know what they are talking about have an opinion about why cancer occurs or what can cure it. The speaker was a total moron. I never know when I'm going to get emotional and I think that is probably pretty normal. I do get really mad when people make it seem like the reason you get cancer is because you've done something wrong.

Hang in there and sending you best wishes from Indy!
Love,
Beth

P.S. I did the Race for the Cure in Evansville today with my friends (where I moved from last year) and it was really moving.
