I host the women’s show on WMNF 88.5 in tampa, Fl. every Thursday from 3-4 pm ET. I had a guest lined up for tomorrow to talk about Komen/PP and she has a medical emergency-I thought I had found a replacement but she too is unavailalble. I was wondering if your director Karuna Jaggar could be avaialble for a ten to fifteen miute interview? maryg@wmnf.org; 813-971-6182. I would love to discuss not so much Komen, but truly trying to prevent breast cancer.
thanks

I think that more examination of Komen’s “reversal” needs to be made. They don’t agree to continue funding – they simply agree to allow PP to apply in the future. Thanks for all you are doing to push for research and prevention.

Could I suggest something that has been on my mind ever since I found your site and a few others that are like minded…why not organize a race where you all come together…and take the eye where it needs to go…and as a cancer patient myself starting 12 years ago, it has never been on the pink! I would love to speak to someone regarding this…maybe starting a non profit that would do this very thing? Thanks, Mary Beth King
