I forwarded this to the bclist.org. I agree with KsGal: sobering conclusion: we find more cancer but as many women die from bc as before. All the money that goes to prevention, early detection and early treatment has not made one iota of difference. We need to focus all our energy on finding a cure. Or at least a way of preventing metastasis. I wish they'd put as much energy, resources and pinkness into that message as they spending on the pink fluff now.
