I TOTALLY DISAGREE, THERE IS MUCH NEED FOR THE AWARENESS FOR FOLIC ACID, TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THE RESULT OF THE LACK OF FOLIC ACID IN A WOMANS BODY AND THE RESULT OF THE CHILD, MY NEPHEW WAS A ANENCEPHALY BABY AND IT WAS SEVERE AND THE AWARENESS TO PREVENT THIS HORRIFIC OUTCOME NEEDS TO BE OUT THERE.

Hmmmm, about your birthday — there’s NO awareness week in the month of mine. What should I make of that?

You’ve just gotta love Prune Breakfast Month. Good lord.

Today the 9th is Balloon Ascension Day in the United States! Woo hoo! Most important to mark upon your calendars is: National Anthem Day.
Here is a list for this month LOL I am sure some still are missing:

March of Dimes Birth Defects Prevention Month
National Glaucoma Awareness Month
Eye Care Month
Hobby Month
Hot Tea Month
Human Resource Month
Prune Breakfast Month
Soup Month
Thyroid Disease Awareness Month
Volunteer Blood Donor Month
Tuberous Sclerosis Awareness Month
Adopt a Rescued Bird Month
Cervical Health Month

My personal favorites are Soup, Oatmeal, and Prune Breakfast! One must remember that all prunes are plums but not all plums are prunes

Like most things follow the money. Unfortunately I agree that the real or worth causes are lost in the awareness days. Sort of like the terror level warning list.

Noteworthy: brain awareness week comes after my birthday. Perhaps, there is something to this?
