Red face Just a comment

I do not have the brains to digest all this information. But here's

I'm the youngest of 3 sisters and the only one with breast cancer, I have never been into sweets, like the other two sisters, however am the only one stricken with cancer. Mother just turn 85 yrs old -healthy- no blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, etc.

Also, I have been the only one of the sisters to have practicec some type of exercise since I was 18-19 yrs old, running, playing basketball, voleyball, etc. Later in life I practiced Jazzercise, Yoga, Tai Chi or is this the tea? LOL. The other 2 have never, ever practiced any type of exercise, to the contrary then can, each; eat a box of chocolates,
-actually they have- so I do not get it. ??

P.S. This past Holidays Mom asked for a desert after dinner, when she found out that it consisted of a very sweet pie-Jewish Walnut Cake, she asked for a cup of coffee w/o sugar, as she was concerned with DIABETES!! We all laughed so hard!!!! Mom has always poured tons of sugar in her coffee, that night all of a sudden she got concerned about her health!!!
