A Soapbox

I try to stay away from blubbering about my political and social beliefs, but I feel I must say something about this issue.

Have you read/heard about Susan G. Komen severing their partnership with Planned Parenthood?

Here’s a good summary from The Huffington Post.

I have run in two Susan G. Komen races and was a huge supporter/fan. Nobody in my family has battled breast cancer, but we have battled other cancers. I support all cancer foundations because if a cure is found for one, a cure will most likely be found for all.

As much as I would like to continue supporting Susan G. Komen, I will be giving my support to other cancer research organizations and Planned Parenthood directly unless Susan G. Komen reconsiders their actions.

Sad news.

**UPDATE**

Komen reverses decision!
