Check out this video made by the staff at Carroll Hospital Center in support of breast cancer awareness and then vote for it in a national contest.
I want to wear pink gloves and dance through the halls of Carroll Hospital Center after watching this video. I probably won't do that, but I will certainly vote for Carroll Hospital Center in this national competition. The winner will receive a $10,000 donation. From today until Friday, Nov. 2, people can vote for Carroll Hospital Center’s Pink Glove Dance video. The hospital produced the video to enter in Medline’s annual contest to promote breast cancer awareness.

Since I'm a woman, I can certainly support breast cancer research. That being said, however, I truly wish more attention and publicity would be paid to other deadly cancers, which receive nowhere near the funding, e.g., lung, prostate, skin, colon, pancreatic, liver, throat/mouth, uterine, etc. Before someone gets on their high horse about lung cancer, many have never smoked or have given it up … more ›
A family supports one of its own by going hair-free in the face of cancer.
Looking at Kelly Rumbaugh's smile, you'd never know she was fighting cancer. Diagnosed with invasive ductile breast cancer this September, the 43-year-old Rumbaugh is known for her zest for life.

In a family show of support, Rumbaugh's mother, Betty Stem, 64, and her oldest daughter, Karli Von Herbulis, 22, decided to shave their heads along with Rumbaugh, and they made an event out of it. The three generations empowered themselves two weeks ago by …
