iVOA - "ITS ALL ABOUT THE PINK RIBBON"



I just came across this article of the that means a great deal to me in many ways...one i lost my very good childhood friend to this dreadful disease and all about being human  We go through so much and do so much for family and society that a huge percentage of us forget to check ourselves before we break ourselves. We have to love ourselves as much as we love every other person or thing in our lives...checking ones self is the best thing we can do for ourselves and those that love us...so make it a priority TODAY to self examine your breast, so you KNOW!.

We read and hear so much about this disease called cancer, in this case Breast cancer which is why we can never over educate ourselves on this topic. This information poster is  straight forward and PLEASE do share with loved ones and every other person around you
.



"Cancer is the epidemic of modern times. Unlike other diseases that have plagued people throughout history like tuberculosis and polio, we haven’t yet discovered a vaccine against it. One of the most common manifestations of this disease is breast cancer, which affects not only one in eight women, but also thousands of men in the United States. In fact, only lung cancer is more destructive. And if someone you love gets breast cancer, it will cost more than just their health: treatment typically costs between $50,000 and $100,000, the latter of which is more than twice the annual median U.S. income. Early detection is the key to surviving breast cancer, so share this graphic with people you love to help them learn stuff about beating cancer before it has a chance."
