Breast Cancer Awareness

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Everyone has been affected by breast cancer or knows someone that has been affected. My mother-in-law passed away of breast cancer May 2001. She did not get the chance to see her only grandchild grow up. And my son will grow up without knowing his wonderful Grandma Viceta.


African-American women are more likely to die from breast cancer than white women even though we have a lower incidence of having it after the age of 40. Breast cancer is treatable through early detection. So please ladies....feel your boobies! Get a yearly mammogram. Early detection is the KEY!
