I have had enough close-up experience with both breast cancer and alcoholism to know that these topics are still not easy to address for most people, but women like Betty Ford helped in making the general public more aware of what is going on - and, more importantly, what can be done to assist those who are affected, directly or indirectly.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188197380219416809.post-59445068844890673852011-07-10T19:20:11.180-04:002011-07-10T19:20:11.180-04:00hi mary...glad to hear you are feeling better....m...hi mary...glad to hear you are feeling better....missed you<br /><br />what a heartfelt and beautiful post about a wonderful woman...<br /><br />lovely<br /><br />happy to stop by today..and YES!!! check out In A Vermont Kitchen...i LOVE that book..<br /><br />sending get well wishes and love,<br />kary and teddy<br />xxMy Farmhouse Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594238190107766755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188197380219416809.post-59909406554389225032011-07-10T19:01:37.866-04:002011-07-10T19:01:37.866-04:00First of all ...

Summertime is NO TIME for being sick! <br /><br />Secondly, I have been out of the loop, as SB and I have been on an extended camping junket, hence no phone, computer, TV, or tech of any sort. Reading of Betty Ford's passing is news to me and your tribute is better than any CBS, NBC, ABC live stream. You're so right ... she was ahead of her time ... or perhaps a discreet voice of reason within The Beltway at a time when the mainstream was leery of her attitudes, for they melded with the radical feminists and recognized the excesses of the 60's generation and the politically powerful.
