Cancer check

In the days of Jim and Tammy Faye Baker scandals of the 80’s, I remember a woman who was truly special to me. When I first met her I knew something was terribly wrong, but a part of me wanted to just be there. We use to watch the classic cartoons like Superman, Pink Panther, Baby Huey and others like it. I enjoyed the times I saw her even though each time she looked weaker and weaker. My mother told me she had cancer, but it didn’t faze me so much because she still watched cartoons with me. I remember one day she looked at me and smiled, she knew I was there just enjoying the moment with her, while the rest of the kids rather do other things. She got up that day and gave me her breakfast, saying I was too skinny to not go without eating, but I did not mind, I was enjoying cartoon watching with her. Last time I had seen her I almost didn’t recognize her, but we still watched cartoons together. One day it all stopped, my mother didn’t really want to tell me she had past, it was more of me asking what happened to the lady who watched cartoons with me? To this day I miss her, even when I see those old classic cartoons my mind goes back to sitting there with her enjoying them. It’s breast cancer awareness month, but to me it’s just a month to remember those who have passed from cancer, and a time to make sure you and your family are cancer free or getting treated. So if it’s been a while get checked. Thank you!! Also if you are in the Washington DC area Friday Oct 1, 2009 to the rest of this month I will have a jewelry display @ Museum of Contemporary Art DC (1054 31st St NW # 9 Washington, DC 20007 inside Canal Square). The pink and white ones that are sold the money will be going to a cancer charity once I find a one that I know the money will help benefit the most. -- Posted from my iPhone
