Looking to buy a card for your mum this year, why not donate to the Breast Cancer Foundation?? For every donation over $2 they will send you a lovely card for you to give to your mums.
For those who didn't know, like so many women, my mum was diagnosed for a second time in Nov 2005 was Breast Cancer. As a result she lost both her breast and spent all of last year and early this year fighting this disease enduring surgery after surgery, and lots of life threatening complications. It is a horrible painful fight and too many women lose this battle. I was lucky that my mum had excellent doctors and she is a battler or she would not be here today.
The research that the Breast Cancer foundation does is to help find ways to save people who are diagnosed and they also support the families through these terrible and extremely stressful times.

I applaud you for making this post Tamatha. My aunt lost both her breasts to cancer a couple of years back so I can understand what you and your family have gone through. Hopefully with having the link right there, plenty of people will take the time to donate.
