Komen was not performing the necessary tasks for the cure, and the actual very low % of money (I can't find the info, but remember 17%) received even used for Cancer awareness. My step-mom (my mom for 49 years) died of breast cancer that after mastectomy and 14 years of remission appeared in her jaw. By then it had taken over her body. I donated to SGK in Mom's name and in the name of a friend. I supported friends in their Walks. No more! I never heard about the film again. I live in a major market in the US. What happened to the showing of the movie? Hmm.. I read about the movie last year and was so upset that Susan G.

To find out more about the vaccine, go to this link and donate. http://my.clevelandclinic.org/multimedia/transcripts/breast-cancer-vaccine-research.aspx Talk about knowing exactly where your money is going. It's work like this we need to be supporting, not buying a stupid Pink vacuum cleaner. I saw the film at the Film Festival by the way - it's brilliant, had the audience riveted, received a strong, long applause at the end too. I can't wait for this film to receive the distribution it deserves.

Breast cancer has become a very lucrative buisiness for so many, and our lives are now expendable. And that is unacceptable and intollerable.
