~~Pink Stinks~~

When I was a little girl, pink was my favorite color. I wanted pink EVERYTHING!!! Even my Barbies loved pink. My Daddy use to tell me, "Pink Stinks!" Of course I would cry and throw an ever lovin' pink fit. He would laugh. I had such pink dedication! Yes, over the years my favorite color has changed. Now nearing 40, my favorite color is whatever makes me look skinny! But still I have special pink things. On March 28th, 2014 I was told I had Breast Cancer. I was given a pink tote bag that day at my surgeon's office. This pink bag would carry all my information, my cancer brochures, my pathology report and everything breast cancer related.

This pink bag would "out" me to everyone I passed in the parking lot that day. It would scream, "Tasha Adkins--39--wife of Greg, Mother of Jacob & Gabe has BREAST CANCER!!!" Right then I realized it was true--- PINK STINKS!!!!
