A friend of mine's sister is a finalist for a competition being held by Prevention Magazine. She's a breast cancer survivor (first in a whole family of breast cancer survivors), and wants to educate more women about the need for checkups and exams so they can avoid the ultimate side effect of breast cancer.
A note from my friend... Quote:
The link leads to Janet's brief story and a link where you can vote. Please take a minute and cast a vote. *edit* BTW, someone else has pointed out to me that the tidbit above about cleaning your cookies to vote again may not exactly be fair. I agree, but I sent along Julann's note as she wrote it. Let your conscience be your guide. Thanks! [ 05-10-2007, 10:30 AM: Message edited by: Bungleau ]

Done. Janet's running 3rd right now with 1680 votes, behind Kate Adamson-Klugman (1707) and BJ Reed (2045). Voting runs till May 25th so she's still got some time to catch up.
I'm going to piggyback on this thread & put in a plug for www.thebreastcancersite.com . Go there, click a button, and sponsors donate $$ based on the number of clicks generated each day. Can't get much simpler than that...
