I -- Kathy Dettwyler -- am the one who has breast cancer, not my dear friend
Kathleen Bruce.  I know it's damn confusing with all these Kathys
everywhere, but Kathleen Bruce and Kathleen Auerbach are the list mothers,
and they don't have breast cancer.  I do, but I am not a list mother.

Forgive my French, but Dr. Northrup is full of shit.  Breast cancer is not
caused by the person who gets it, and does not have an emotional basis.
Please keep these kooky ideas to yourself.
