    Instead of decorating in pink or bringing more attention to the most focused on cancer just support all cancer awareness as a whole without the pink attached to it.

    Not trying to be disrespectful on this but I've had more than a few family members die or nearly die from other forms of cancer.

    Well, to be brutally honest, you failed in that regard. BRCA awareness does not detract from awareness of the other types of cancer. It does not somehow cheapen the tragedy of those lost to any of the numerous other forms out there. I'm not sure why you seem to take offence to a goodhearted gesture like the OP's.

    Maybe instead of being negative about someone trying to do something good for a cause that you apparently believe gets enough attention already (is such a thing even possible?) you could try to advocate for those impacted by any or all of the other forms of cancer? You care enough to complain about BRCA awareness, why not channel that energy into a positive force instead? Nothing is stopping you from starting a campaign in support of the people affected by the types of cancers that have touched your life.

    To the topic at hand: I went pink as well and have been handing out dye (great idea, OP) when I have the chance.
