I initially thought of this too, but I also urge caution and sensitivity. There are plenty of VERY strong women who have faced cancer but who sadly were not able to beat the disease. I know you would never want to insinuate that those who fell to the disease were not strong. The term "only" is what makes me a tad uneasy.

(my husband is an oncologist and I have just heard too many heartbreaking stories. Some types of cancers are just so bad it just doesn't matter how strong one fights.. the cancer always wins. Sad.)

NP- great question and I really like the military suggestion. I will try to think of others. Again the "only" makes this hard for me!

I agree with this.

A woman sweating like a hog while jogging on a treadmill to the Jerry Butler song. (I think this was a Weight Watchers or some weight-loss food commercial a few years ago.)
