i let my daughter nurse on one boob for an extra six months.. the bad one.
oh, and i played with mercury and ate those horsemeat burgers from Griffs, and ate crawfish raw to show off.
i brushed my teeth with Ajax once... the month i was so poor i couldn't afford anything but that 10 pound bag of rice.
i ate 8 donuts once after cycling.. then, i was so uncomfortable i didn't eat anything for 4 days.
my mom had tuberculosis.. she is convinced that is why i have cancer.
i drank
i smoked
i stoked
you know... all that stuff.

Candy cigarettes. Since they were candy they bypassed my lungs and went straight for the breast.

Construction paper, that must be it! And with the paste for all those holiday garlands and party garlands!!!!! All that paste.... and rubber cement. Together with the crayons and .... play doh!!!! YES I ATE THE PLAY DOUGH!!!!! Play dough and mercury... mercury is so much fun. No, I didn't eat the mercury, just the play dough. Salty. Well, you know.

you know the bad part about all this stuff is I remember most of it and if it didn't cause my cancer I am pretty darn sure it all made me ger old!!!!! I think it was the candy cigarettes for sure cause I quite them and suffered no withdraws however when I quite the rewal ones I had withdrawals so it couldn't have been the real cigs. And definitely not the alcohol that only affects the liver. I didn't nurse my daughter maybe thats why I got it (punishment) cause I was afraid that she would starve since they were so small.

No, Debbie5108, because getting old(er) also causes BC. Look, we all did it, got birthed and then got older and got BC.

Picking my nose. That has to be it.

I reckon it was all those tubes of Nestle coffee and condensed milk that were the rage when I was in high school . . . . but. . . .maybe it was the sherbert in the bag with the licorice straw to suck it up with (with all that laxative in ya system, the good cells didn't stand a chance against the bad ones) OR-R it could've been Vegemite, which all Aussies are fed from birth, (almost before mothers milk) and maybe, just maybe, it could be my guilt/punishment for all those horrible vegetables that I ate instead of sending them to all the starving children in Africa/India.

Well, yeah, I guess it could be from living down-under but then what about the rest of us?
Brussels sprouts - I love them - that's it - brussels sprouts is the cause. Thanks Sheila for reminding me of the veggies.

Vegetables causing cancer? PLEASE don't tell my children!

I know why I got BC. A friend in elementary school told me if you ate the banana bruises you would get cancer. She knew this was true because it happened to her aunt. See - it must have been the banana bruises.

tang? those awful jello salads at pot-luck dinners? red cool-aid? playing with color forms...the lights from the Lite Brite? No, it was the babyoil and iodine covered sunbathing in conjunction with drinking Pepsi Light and TAB. I always knew the TAB would catch up with me some day....

Dare I say Tampons? Had one friend get some infection from leaving in too long.

Leaving it in - I think I actually lost one in there one time (yeah, TMI). Hmmmmmmmmmm, I think I did finally find it! But not before the toxins got out and gave me BC.
And I ate a banana with a bruise just today!!!! Well it was only a tiny bruise so B9. YAY
Night all.

Maybe it was those training bras.

laying out on the beach in a dark bathing suit and getting that burning heat on your boobs from the dark suit....just burned that BC right on in.
or maybe it was playing out in the rain during a summer storm...you know that rain could have been filled with all kinds of hazarsous waste...
OR drinking from the water hose in the front yard
Gee I wish I had a TAB!!

by the way bigapple- what the heck did we think we were training them to do anyway???LOL
0 -
we were training them to react to being flattened in mammo machines, being pricked for needle biopsies, zapped in mri's, color-coated with contrast dyes, absorbing chemo meds, zapping more with rads and downing ai's for years on end - what else?
Good grief ladies, don't you know anything!

I swore in front of Sabian Macyntyre when I was 7.
I ate too much treacle pudding at boarding school. Also toffees.
I wore platform snakeskin shoes (blue and silver) with 6 inch heels.
I stuck weird foreign coins in the parking meters in Maddox Street, London W.1.
I ate obscene quantities of Huntley and Palmers' Honey Cream biscuits, AND I dipped them in my coffee.
I refused to eat swedes (the veg, not the nationality. What I did with them is my business).
I wore glittery eye shadow when I was 15.
Is it any wonder.................

my boobs passed the test!!! They were listening to all that training!! LOL
Hey it's a southern thing but maybe I ate too much honeysuckle when i was little or it's punishment for actaully touching my grandmas touch-me-nots

OMG, I've been working on a journal about this very topic for weeks now. Barbie booby envy never crossed my mind. Can I borrow that one or is that against the site rules?
We need to keep at this because some incompetent scientists in the UK said that wine causes cancer. Okay, maybe the terminology was "contributing factor" but it scared me none the less. Don't worry, I'm okay. I only drink American wine now.
I didn't make a papasan chair out of a jock strap for my Barbie's but I did make water bed out of a shoe box and a water filled Ziplock baggie.
If there's anyone doing a scientific tally, here's my list of excessive exposure....
Wax lips, Ding Dongs, Zingers, Twinkies, Ho Ho's, fondling of mercury, Kleenex, last but definitely not least, baby oil and lots of it. (Southern CAL girl growing up.)
Did we cover MSG and tuna?
Patoo.....you crack me up.

There should be a sub-study to see if there are different side effects for the Ho-Ho's vs Yodels
Let us not forget... MALLOWMARS... Ring Dings, and making little foil wine goblets from the wrappers...
Double Bubble...

Well ReneeS, glad you're tickled cause that's what gave me BC - other people laughing at me!!! My cells were sooooooooo despondent they rebelled. Not a problem, American wine is calling.
Oh, remembered the name of that stuff for corns - Freezone - that 'contributed' too.
0 -
renee - ignore the English idiot. He probably meant wine in boxes.
really brilliant posts on here. Should we present this to Sloan Kettering or somewhere?

This was so funny! Just what I needed today! Though if there is a serious study going on, that would be great if we all listed what WE believed caused our own breast cancers...if so, let me know! (Chewy Gobstoppers!) ~juli

Thanks for the all the fun I had reading those responses. i never thought about how I was the "1 in 7 women to be diagnosed with breast cancer in Orange County". Mine might have come from those little candy dots that were stuck to paper. I think I ate more paper than anything else!
