A Simple Cup of Coffee

I went into Saxby’s this morning for a simple cup of coffee. Only there was a special event happening for their 5th anniversary. Living Beyond Breast Cancer whose offices are next door was getting 5% of all profits for the day and giving out literature and goodies to all customers. A very nice couple were sitting amidst the pile of pens, hand sanitizers, pamphlets, pink (0f course!) wrist bands, and other stuff waiting for people to come over.

People pleaser that I am, I ambled over after I got my decaffeinated skinny vanilla latte (OK, not so-simple-cup of coffee) and spoke to them. We specifically talked about being cancer survivors,  Yoga on the Steps at the Art Museum on May 19, Living Beyond Breast Cancer, and Dr. Marisa Weiss, my radiologist at Lankenau Hospital.

Dr. Marisa Weiss was instrumental is starting Living Beyond Breast Cancer which empowers all women affected with breast cancer to live as long as possible with the best quality of life.

I went back to my car wondering if it was a good or bad thing that breast cancer pops up everywhere, even with my morning coffee.
