Cat Chow for the Cure

For the poor lonely bachelor. The man without a wife, a daughter, or a sister. Living alone with his cat. Now he can feel whole again by helping find a cure through his pussy.

Komen's Krap for the Kure

The blog that is dedicated to all of Komen's Krap for the Kure.

Last night, I decided to flip through my recent issue of Ladie's Home Journal. About 3 or 4 pages into it was the Ford's Warriors in Pink ad featuring breast cancer survivors and co-survivors. Co-survivors??? WTF?

I Googled it. Of course the first three finds were all Komen stuff. This one I thought was a bit interesting.

"Do you know someone dealing with breast cancer? At times, it may be hard to know what to say or do. But one thing you know for sure is that you want to help. At Susan G. Komen for the Cure, we call these people offering help and support "co-survivors."

Komen for the Cure developed a co-survivor ribbon that combines the pink ribbon, the universal symbol for breast cancer awareness, with the color white to recognize the relationship between breast cancer survivors and their co-survivors. This special pink and white ribbon has become the symbol of the co-survivor.

There are as many ways of being a co-survivor as there are people! Thoughtful gestures big and small mean so much to survivors, whether they've just been diagnosed or completed treatment years ago. The strength, love and support you show in ways big and small make you a co-survivor.

If you are looking for ways to help, try these three simple steps:

Step 1: Find out all you can about breast cancer and treatment choices.

Step 2: Tell the person you are ready, willing and able to help.

Step 3: Pull together a team of family, friends, co-workers and neighbors.

For more information on ways to be a co-survivor, please visit the Komen co-survivor mini-site at www.komen.org/cosurvivor."

Sounds to me like anyone and everyone is a co-survivor. Even my three cats.

But out of the things I came across last night, this very one down here, really made me want to vomit.
