I am a 6 year breast cancer survivor who never wore pink and never thought of myself as a "pink" person but since going through the double mastectomy and 6 treatments of chemo from which I got the very real "chemo brain" I wear pink and my pink ribbon jewlery to remind others to get their mammograms religiously and that there is hope and surviorship after breast cancer. Go for the ribbon flannel and tell her she should be proud and stong!!! My Mother and her 3 other sisters as well as two younger first cousins had it, some made it and some didn't but the ones who found it the earliest had the best chance so get your mammograms. Many counties and state health departments offer free exams for people with low incomes. Go pink to remember!
