I found this on Pinterest. 
What breast cancer can look like.  This is a picture of a breast cancer survivor showing where her cancer was found.  
A note from a survivor:

I cannot tell you all how excited I will be to hit my 5th year for my Breast Cancer Survivor anniversary on November 13th! My sweet mommy only lived 4 years after her diagnosis and this has been haunting me since I was 23. I believe I can truly feel free from this wretched disease once I reach 5 years. I feel so blessed.

Wow! Where has the summer gone? We had a very hot summer here in Texas. Although not a lot of 'cappers' wanted to wear knit caps during the 100° plus temperatures, we continue making them. The weather will, or should be, cooling down and we know that we will be getting calls from the infusion centers with requests for more caps. I wish the reason we didn't get calls was because the need wasn't there but, unfortunately, it's the temperature that slowed us down. Someday, we'll be able to say "This is the last cap we'll need because the terrible disease of cancer has been eliminated." But, until that day comes, we'll still knit. So now it's catchup time for the blog. Summer is over, kids are back in school and it's time to get busy again. If you have any articles about survivors, thoughts to help others or stories you need told, just drop us a line.
