Wednesday Awareness shout out!

***I am now designating every Wednesday for Awareness Wednesday, where I will give a shout out to something that I like to call awareness to. Starting now!***


I was channel surfing this evening, after putting Koby to bed. Waiting for the one Wednesday night show I actually like to watch( what is with Wednesday night TV?). Anyway, I saw a commercial that caught my eye...it was just a clip of the word Herceptin. I stopped to see just what it was, knowing I had heard that word before. It was the commercial for the moving called Living Proof. It is about the Doctor who invented Herceptin, and the challenges he faced,just trying to get people to believe in him and his clinical trials. It is about the women who he has helped, and lives he has truley saved! Herceptin is a medicine used to treat/cure breast cancer. I have heard of it because, of my personal research done when my Mom, and then Grandmother both were diagnosed with Breast Cancer. They are both now survivors!
October is Breast Cancer awareness month, as well as Down syndrome awarness month( they put them together just for me...woo hoo- insert eye roll here-) Anyway, I will definatley be watching this movie and I think you should too!!! Just a little awareness shout out for the day!
