I remember Karen from school and from growing up in one of the most special places in this world. The pretty picture and lovely smile remind me of the Karen I knew. I am sorry she is gone and that breast cancer took her from her family, as it did my girlfriend in 2010. Despite spending billions of dollars, the reality is we've really made pitiful progress in ending this disease. In Karen's memory and the memory of all this disease has taken from us, let''s resolve ourselves to ending breast cancer. The answer is out there and it's time we put the focus on curing breast cancer and saving lives rather than making pharmaceutical companies successful. Our goal is to end this disease and I hope more people will push for real cures rather than the tragic failure we've seen. Karen, rest in peace while we continue your battle and achieve the ultimate victory over breast cancer.
