We finish up October and Breast Cancer Awareness month with a final look at some more breast cancer bloggers talking about pink garbage cans, Halloween and the need for more research rather than awareness. If you’d like to be considered for a future round up, please leave your blog link in comments.
Looking ahead, November is awareness month for lung and pancreatic cancer, so we’ll be searching for blogs to feature about those two cancer types. In addition it’s Movember, an awareness and fundraising campaign for prostate cancer that encourages men to grow Mustaches (or Mo’s as their called in Australia, where the campaign started) to show their support. Rumor has it the men folk of Navigating Cancer may be sprouting some new facial styles. Stay tuned…
Have a great weekend and Happy Halloween!
