October equals Breat Cancer Awareness Month. My Darling cousin, Veronike, died of this nasty disease and by inserting something about breast cancer on my blog makes me feel I am honouring her and make people aware of what needs to be done.
- How many times do health professionals need to stress out to women how important it is to TAKE ACTION?!? This month, please acknowledge it, in either way you can, you can visit any or all of the following web sites to inform yourself on the disease itself.
- The Breast Cancer Site
- BreastCancer.org
- National Cancer Institute
- National Breast Cancer Foundation Inc.
How many of you, honestly, perform monthly a Breast Self-Exam? Here it is shown how to do it.
Maybe you could also remind your Mother, your Sister, your Aunt, Friend(s) to schedule their yearly mammogram?
