God really speaks to us in ways that we least expect Him to. And when He does, He makes sure that it touches the core of our beings. He definitely knows how to get our attention. I went to Baptist Hospital for my annual mammogram / sonogram check-up. I started having this routine exam since 2003. That's when I first detected a lump in my right breast.

True, I freaked out when I felt that undeniably marble-like firmness around the upper right quadrant of my bosom, but deep inside I found reassurance in knowing that our family had no history of breast cancer. But that was then. And this is now. Today's picture has changed so much. Now - is after my own mother was diagnosed with cancer in 2006 and lost her battle in 2007. Now - is after my father was diagnosed with colon cancer at the very same year my mother passed away. Now - is when my other cousin (father's side) also discovered he has advanced renal cancer at 50 years old....
