Five

FYI. A friend just told me about a TV show called "Five" that starts tonight on Lifetime. It is five different short films about breast cancer. Good cast and all directed by women. Might be heavy going. But wanted to share the information.
Keep the faith.

Re: Five

Just watched it. Cried throughout. Especially the story of Pearl. I am so thankful we can talk about cancer today, not hide it.

Re: Five

I thought this was pretty good. It definately was to the heart of breast cancer and how it affects the people in your life. I cried throughout as well and I especially loved the story about Pearl, that was the best one. I don't know... I just felt more depressed after watching it....but I think I have a bit of depression to begin with that I need to get help for. I don't know that I would want my mother to watch it either....it's too emotional and I don't want to put her through that.
