October, as most of us know, is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It is the time of year that pumpkins burst onto grocery store shelves and pink ribbons become fashion accessories. This story on divinecaroline.com, wonderfully explored one's reason for joining in the fight against breast cancer.

"All of us have our reasons for raising money and awareness for women’s cancers … and it’s not just for the free t-shirt.

My reason is I am a breast cancer survivor. I’ve never had the disease—though men can get it—but I am the son of a breast cancer survivor, my mother Linda. And I, and the rest of our family, feel we survived it with her. The battle against cancer isn’t to be fought only by those who have it."

Happy Reading.
