"I Survived Breast Cancer and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt!" | Yes, Breast Cancer CAN be Funny!

Please share this video with anyone you know who would enjoy and appreciate a good laugh. Because yes, breast cancer CAN be funny! Joanne Dodge, founding Board member of BreastCancerStories.org / My Breast Cancer Support hosts the 2010 comedy show, "I Survived Breast Cancer and All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt!" The event, a fundraiser for http://www.BreastCancerStories.org, took place at The Music Hall in Portsmouth, NH. Sadly, Joanne lost her 4th battle with breast cancer February 28, 2012. She was a very funny woman, a true advocate for breast cancer support initiatives, and she touched so many people's lives. Her daughter, Wendy McCoole (also a survivor), founded BreastCancerStories.org in 2005 with her Mom by her side. Joanne's legacy lives on in all of us.
