As everyone knows, this is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and there are many ways to celebrate and honor those who have fought, who are still fighting or who have lost their battles to breast cancer.
Every year, Tallapoosa Publishers Inc. produces a breast cancer awareness special section. Sometimes we focus simply on survivors and those who are still struggling with breast cancer; other times we focus on organizations and medical treatments meant to support the fight against breast cancer. This year, though, we took a slightly different angle.
