Yeah, and the latest studies that came out this week say you don't need to get a mammogram until what age?

/sad, truly sad

I don't know who this woman is, but my money says she's not important enough for me to care.

deadapostle: I don't know who this woman is, but my money says she's not important enough for me to care.

Yet you found time in your busy day to type 19 words about it.

/yes, I took the time to count

Tits or GTFO?

WTFDYW: Yeah, and the latest studies that came out this week say you don't need to get a mammogram until what age?

/sad, truly sad

I would guess that study was based on aggregate numbers that indicate there is no significant increase in lifespan for women who receive mammograms in their 40s. In some individual cases, aka anecdotal evidence, obviously the mammograms helped but in the vast majority they did not. Similar arguments are being made about whether it is worthwhile to measure PSA levels on a routine basis.

It's real sad that she found out she had cancer at age 30. Too bad she had a 12 year battle to try and overcome it.

You said breast

RIP steph, you helped a lot of people along the way

I heard the news, quite sad indeed.

/Go Bucks!

Five bouts with cancer before it beat her. Damn.

Isn't it worth it to save even one boobie?

/Very sad for Chris and his family

ChrisDe: Five bouts with cancer before it beat her. Damn.

that means she retired at 4-1.
that's pretty bad-ass in my book

RIP, good lady.

Yes the beginning of the public option. Ohhh you don't need that citizen, it's too expensive.

/Ha you got politics in my sports
//you got sports in my politics

How many boobs did she have???

I'd like to think you're a little kid trying to be an ITG, but it's probably closer to the truth that you're just an ass.

skinink: It's real sad that she found out she had cancer at age 30. Too bad she had a 12 year battle to try and overcome it.

So which is better? Diagnosed @ 30 and dead by 32? Or battling cancer for 12 years?

/ no snark... just lost my mom to ALS, made it 14 months after the official diagnosis
// her "quality of life" wasn't that great at the end

Her foundation raised over $6 million for breast cancer research. Saw her at the OSU-Navy game this year, she looked bad, and thats when I heard her cancer had come back.

/RIP Stephanie.

RIP. They seemed like a real stand-up family when they were in Detroit.

Bummer.

I'm still amazed that at this stage we haven't cured cancer yet.

Boners? Yep. Big boobs? Yep. Cancer? yeah...we'll get back to you on that one.

/I know cancer is far more difficult to cure, i'm not retarded
//still amazed we haven't figured it out yet...
///by "we" I mean people far more intelligent than me.

ihatedumbpeople: Bummer.

We have.

In 5th grade, my friend Ryan and I even did the write up on it. Our hypothesis was that he and I had invented the cure for cancer while experimenting with our chemistry sets. But my mom came in and made us clean up. So dumped all the stuff out.

/ check the sewers in Raytown, MO, the cancer treatment is still there
// 22 years later

taylonr: We have.

Good going, fonebone. You just made the alligators in the sewers all cancer-proof.

Another reminder for all Farkettes to get a mammogram on a regular basis.

/got one earlier this year, all clean.

dude....thanks. everytime i think i've already run into the biggest douchebag on the internet, someone like you pops up and assures me i haven't...

deadapostle: I don't know who this woman is, but my money says she's not important enough for me to care.

Let me know when someone in your life is affected by breast cancer. The odds tell me I'll be able to come around to collect.

The sad thing is, all the kids - 4 of them... plus she lost one with the initial diagnosis 12 years ago.

Anyone have an idea how old the kids are? I'm guessing, if Chris and Stefanie were dating in college, they can't be older than 20.

Chris was one of the toughest and classiest players in the game, an all-around big-hearted guy. I'm saddened that he and his family has had to suffer so much.

Great. Now this is all they're going to talk about on the farking news in Columbus... forever.

Yes, I'm sad for the family, but Columbus news stations love to beat a dead horse.

RIP Stefanie. The Scarlet and Gray Nation mourns your loss.

Very sorry to hear this.

PanicAttack: Great. Now this is all they're going to talk about on the farking news in Columbus... forever.

You poor child. You'll have to listen to a news story more than once.

A family just lost their mother and wife to her fifth bout with cancer. But you know, its really too bad that you're going to have to listen to a story more than once.fark you.

PanicAttack: Great. Now this is all they're going to talk about on the farking news in Columbus... forever.

Did she look like Sarah Jessica Parker?

KJUW89: Another reminder for all Farkettes to get a mammogram on a regular basis.

According to the same guidelines about not getting mammograms every year, they also recommend NOT giving yourself a self exam. Why? Because it might "cause anxiety". Fark you, U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Dying of a detectable, curable illness causes a farkload more anxiety.

Was she hot?

/good night, classy lady

Ages 15 - 7. There are 3 girls and a boy.

So was she hot?

Buckeyes will be wearing pink buckeyes on their helmets in honor of Stefanie when they play Meechigan tomorrow.

She not only fought cancer for 12 years but raised a lot of money for research along the way. Very classy lady.

Goodspeed Steph.

/I say we take it out on Michigan tomorrow!

I heard she had something to get off her chest.

Creeping Malaise: Her foundation raised over $6 million for breast cancer research. Saw her at the OSU-Navy game this year, she looked bad, and thats when I heard her cancer had come back.

LOL. Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
