A professor had a mug which said "F*%& Cancer". Someone came up to him and said, "That's not a nice word", and he responded, "Yes, but since that's the name of the disease I have, I feel justified in using it". It's a horrible illness, and our ability to stand tall and laugh in the face of death is part of what makes us human.
Both my grandmothers and my mother had breast cancer. My paternal grandmother died of it when I was 10.
