The Coalition for Women’s Cancers at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital is drawing attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month during October with the placement of Molly the cow at the Phillips Family Cancer Center on Route 27. It is to remind women to get their annual "maMOOOOOOgrams." Although cancer is no laughing matter, Molly is there wildly decorated with a fun and whimsical yarn bombing done by breast cancer survivors and volunteers of the Coalition. The cow was loaned for the occasion by the Behind the Fence Gallery on Sunrise Highway. “What better way to honor my Aunt Molly, who passed from breast cancer,” said Allison Jennerich of Behind the Fence Gallery.
