How to Be Alert to 4 Signs of Breast Cancer – Lump, Dimple, Rash, or Nipple Discharge


Breast Cancer health alert: Many people are aware that a lump in the breast could potentially be a sign of breast cancer. Whether this mass or tumor turns out to be benign or malignant, you should always get it checked out.

Are you also aware that nipple discharge could be a sign of breast cancer? Additionally, if you have a rash, a dimple (indentation of any size), or there is puckering on your breast, this could also be a sign of serious breast cancer. If you notice any of these signs, make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible to find out whether you might have cancer calls invading your breast and potentially other regions of your body.

Send either congratulatory or sympathy flowers dependent on Super Bowl 2010 win or loss


So, how do you feel about the winners of Super Bowl 2010 – the New Orleans Saints? I’m certain there are very many people who are very happy about those results. They are probably jumping for joy that the score was 31 to 17, in the favor of the New Orleans Saints. So if you have happy football fans living at or visiting your house, perhaps you would like to send them congratulatory flowers. You all can stand there, smell the roses or other kinds of flowers, and shake either’s hands or hug each other ecstatically.

Let’s say that you have no particular feelings about the New Orleans Saints one way or the other. You are indifferent as to whether they won or lost. Instead, you were more invested in the various Super Bowl commercials and keeping the larder well-stocked for the various football fans congregating in or around your house.

In my case, it is my mother-in-law who I feel sorry for. Perhaps I should send her ‘I’m sorry roses’ and ‘Let me cheer you up roses’ or ‘Perhaps he’ll have better luck next year flowers’. My mother-in-law, who lives in a nursing home, is a major Peyton Manning fan. She was very disappointed that he lost. It’s funny how you can get attached to one particular person. I don’t know that she really has a strong relationship with the Indianapolis Colts. As far as I know, she has never been to Indianapolis. She is, however, a die-hard Tennessee Vols fan. Naturally, that is where Peyton Manning got his original claim to fame.

So, to my Mother-in-law, who I love dearly, I am sending you a figurative bouquet of roses. Perhaps, some of you who are a bit more serious about your sports figures, you might want to send a bouquet of flowers in real life. If so, you might want to consider ordering them from a reputable flower company such as 1800 flowers.com. Just a suggestion for you to think about.

Flowers sent for Super Bowl 2010, Valentine’s Day, or Chinese New Year could make a great celebratory gift



Are you a football fan? Do you intend to plant yourself on your couch or easy chair to watch the Super Bowl 2010 between the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints Sunday evening, February 7th at 6:25 EST on CBS? Even if you are not a big football fan, the commercials and half-time show are always a lot of fun to watch. One idea that could make the day extra fun for the football fan in your life is to send them some flowers from 1800-Flowers. They have several fun-looking bouquets that are guaranteed to be delivered on the same day you order them. I included one example in the picture that includes a cute little bear, some candy to munch on during the game, plus beautiful roses to look at and sniff. Just a fun weekend idea for you to consider!

Plus, who can forget that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner on February 14th? That’s a week from Sunday – hint, hint, hint.

Not only is that day Valentine’s Day, it is also the Chinese New Year – the Year of the Tiger. So there is another holiday that flowers might make the perfect gift for somebody special in your life.

According to one source, Chinese New Year is very much like the Christmas that many of us like to celebrate. They make this a day for getting together with people they love, lots of good food, and the giving of gifts. So, perhaps flowers would be a much-appreciated and thoughtful gift to make on that very special day.

Whether you celebrate any or all or none of those holidays with the sharing of gifts or flowers, I wish all of you a very happy day on all three of those occasions and every day in-between.
