Thank you Beccie, and everyone else who helped support this. Love you all!

Wow I could be wrong on this too, but I think it is 8pm UK time. 3pm EST is 2pm for me (CST), and the UK is 6 hours ahead of me, so that would be +5 for EST, either way making it 8pm. I didn't realize it was so early, but I'll still try and be there. If I can't (I do have school) then I'll be there in heart and spirit!!!

Agreed 100% Dee. Our hearts are with you, and anyone who has lost a loved one. Awareness campaigns are designed to inspire and bring people together. Bringing attention to any type of preventable death is surely a worth cause, and by banding together, sharing and supporting research, and furthering collaboration and awareness, I share Beccie's hope that soon we will be able to prevent and cure all of these diseases. Bringing awareness to these diseases does not detract in the slightest from thr message, but adds to it...enhances the message and the need for support.

I'll be there!!!

**hugs** Keep up the efforts, despite the criticism on the "methods." I tend to agree that some gifts and a few forum threads hardly qualify as spamming, but as you and others mentioned, if this helps raise enough awareness to save even one life (or hopefully more), it will have been well worth the effort. Love you girl.

Ignore the criticism, love. Comes from a lack of understanding and empathetic appreciation for what you are doing. You hold the love and gratitude of many for all your efforts, as does everyone who is doing what they can to support this campaign in-game and in real life. Thank you.

I think all the support towards Breast Cancer Awareness is just amazing. I thank Beccie and everyone for being so passionate, and showing their desire to help spread the word. My life has personally and drastically been affected by this. As a child, I lost my mom to breast cancer, and I wonder on an almost daily basis how different my life might have been had it been detected earlier, and had she had the treatment she needed. Every dollar, every effort, every thought that goes to support this campaign and further research is a blessing and is very much appreciated. In answer to people to might not understand why we make such a big deal about the awareness part, it is not because we are trying to spam or annoy anyone. Keeping such a topic at the forefront of everyone's minds, through constant reminder and repetition, is one of the surest ways to prevent what happened to my mom from happening to other mothers, wives, girlfriends, and loved ones. I am truly touched by such support from this community, and from the admin and dev teams. Thank you so much.

Gives me chills every time I read it: Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole,I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud.Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade,And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll,I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.

Thank you for this post, and for raising awareness! This means a lot to me personally. Love you all. Thank you again....
