Breast Cancer can hit Women and men at any age.
12 Months a year. In Oct we bring it forward to remind people how important it
is to keep tabs on your health.

One of the ways is to get a Mammogram once a year, I know they say after 40 years of age, but if you feel something that does not feel right tell your Doctor.
Some have said that Cancer is not always found during a Mammogram,
but it is a start.
Please join us in the fight to make "Cancer Just a Word"

It's not just Breast Cancer Awareness month, but also about prevention. Thank you for mentioning the latest in technological advances and ongoing research to help cure the disease along with all cancers, not just breast. It's important to continue research and seek healthier/safer alternatives to chemo and radiation therapy. eBook source: http://www.post-chemo.com Recover, Rebuild, and Protect.
