Happy Fourth of July

I hope everyone has a grand Fourth of July! As we celebrate the birth of the United States and the signing the Declaration of Independence, I wish you all a safe and happy holiday.

Take a minute to reflect — that flag of ours is really special, isn’t it?

Enjoy the fireworks tonight, wherever you are. Think of the bombs bursting in air giving proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Test how much you know about all things patriotic, check out this quiz at whitehousekids.com and tell me … are you smarter than a fifth grader?

Seriously though: Happy Fourth of July everybody. Happy Fourth of July!

About Discussing Breast Cancer

Discussing Breast Cancer is the place for survivors, their friends and family members to turn for information that will empower them to navigate through the storm they may find themselves in before, during or after a breast cancer diagnosis.

Many of the posts are about the author's personal experience as a two time survivor. In addition, Discussing Breast Cancer is loaded with timely news and information about the disease, it's symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. It will also reference the myriad of sites, individuals and organizations that either raise money and/or awareness for the cause or in some way contribute to researching a cure or serving breast cancer survivors worldwide.
