3 generations tough

My mother who is now 72 was diagnosed 4 years ago with breast cancer, underwent chemo, radiation and mastectomy and is so far now cancer free. I was diagnosed at 49 yrs old in the spring of 2008, and because of early detection, underwent surgery only which involved mastectomy and complete reconstruction of my left breast. I am also presently cancer free. Now my 20 year old daughter is undergoing screening for a lump but initial tests do not indicate cancer at this time, THANK GOD!! She will have to be diligent about it for the rest of her life however. There was previously NO history in my family on either side so we are inclined to think environmental causes...but will never know for sure. This has become epidemic and so disturbing. I bought the bracelet but it expresses my sentiments so well and hope the donation portion will help others facing this horrible affliction.
