The Musings Of A Lump Of Clay

So, today I was thinking about what I should post about.  I was  wondering how many people have been affected by breast cancer.  My mom was diagnosed May 1, 2006, and was recently declared cancer free.  This after five months of chemotherapy, a mastectomy and some reconstruction.  I cannot even begin to describe the pain and hardship we went through.  However, we came out stronger and more resilient.  The horrors my family experienced will never go away, but we got through it as survivors.

The scary thing is insurance companies.  My mother recently got something in the mail saying that insurance companies are making it harder for patients to get the drugs that they need to treat cancer.  They will only cover certain drugs, drugs that may be someone’s last hope. 

As a person who almost lost a loved one to cancer…I think we need to do anything we can to fight against people who care only about money instead of saving the lives of people who are loved.  What exactly that is, I do not know, but let’s do SOMETHING.
