This was the saddest happiest book I have read. What happens to Susie is tragic and devastating to her family. But as Susie helps her family towards recovery the mood in the book lifted for me. I wish Susan Sarandon was not in this movie. She's a good actress but I have a hard time watching the old socialist on the screen.

This statement is on the Susan G Komen Facebook wall:
"... Mrs. Lieberman has long been associated with us, working on breast cancer education and awareness in other countries as a Komen Global Ambassador. Her efforts have been invaluable and we intend to keep tapping her expertise to fulfill our goal to bring breast cancer programs to women in countries who have few resources to battle this disease.

Hadassah's efforts on our behalf are separate and unrelated to our advocacy on health reform. The Susan G. Komen Advocacy Alliance, our sister organization, has been working hard to support health care reforms that protect breast cancer patients and survivors from high-out-of pocket costs, prevent discrimination against people with pre-existing conditions and ensure access to cancer screening and treatment."
