RSSOne of the key messages in breast cancer campaigns is around the fight. The message that women get is that if they fight hard enough, they will beat the disease. But what does that say about those who do not survive? Did they not fight hard enough? Not pray hard enough? Were they not pink and cheerful enough? There are evidently some breast cancer survivors who can relate to the wave of pink and take some comfort in it and strength from it. But there are just as many that resent it.
