How did this get to me? I am not subscribed to the chat list, so it must have been sent to the lace list. The lace list is only for lace-related things, even if the person who sent it has it listed as "lace-chat" in her address book (as can be seen in the headers.
Please, everybody, be respectful of the way Arachne is set up. There is a list for talking about lace-related things. There is a list for talking about other things. As someone who is living with breast cancer, I am always happy to have *safe places* where I know the subject won't come up, where I can just live my life without having to think about the sword hanging over my head. Until this post, Arachne was one such place. I am sure that the person who posted this had only good and worthy intentions. It is surely a worthy cause. However, good intentions must also respect frameworks and rules. Thank you for listening. After all, this was off-topic, too.
