I am a BRCA 2 carrier. My mother has breast cancer and this blog is about my journey to avoid that fate.

Doing the opposite.
I get the whole "pink" association with breast cancer and how we can show our support but I have the opposite thoughts. I want to be proactive and healthy but I cannot let "pink" define my life. It cannot be all that I think about. It is not, though it is taking up a lot of space in my brain right now (and after two kids I feel I have little space left anyway!). It is harder to stay focused at work and at home when I can be researching, finding doctors, reading message boards, etc. So, my take on this is to: Stay Calm and DON'T think pink (all the time!). I hope that I can take my own advice.
