being a nurse, of course i support breast cancer awareness.. not just breast cancer but all cancers… =) seeing people with cancer, especially on its late stages, is really sad. people should be more aware of the risk factors (like unhealthy lifestyle) and the warning signs:
“CAUTION US”
C- changes in bowel or bladder habits
A – a sore that does not heal
U-unusual bleeding or discharge
T-thickening or lump in the breast or elsewhere
I-indigestion and difficulty swallowing
O-obvious change in wart or mole
N- nagging cough/hoarseness in voice
U-unexplained anemia
S-sudden weight loss

I was made fully aware of breast cancer just recently when I too had a lump removed. They told me that it was “just a simple fluid-filled cyst.” I insisted on a biopsy. When they tried to aspirate it, it was impermiable. I then said, “Stop playing around and take it out!”
Praise God it was benign but it was not as they had told me. It was a very complex cyst with several changes occurring in both the duct and the surrounding tissue.
I believe that I made the right choice and that God led me to have it removed. Thank you, Lord!

I do, out of necessity. I had a lump at the age of 16. It was benign. Then, almost 30 years later, another lump was not. It was malignant. I just finished 15 months of active treatment. I was HER2+ and had a year of Herceptin in addition to the chemo and radiation. It was also ER+ and PR+, so I will be on Tamoxifen for several years.
I had no family history and was in no risk category. You have to be aware, the life you save may be your own.

We had our relay for life last night, and it was a huge success, And yes I support Cancer awareness 100 %, Thank you for reminding other ladies, and God Bless.

I do. My paternal grand mother died of breast cancer. My aunt is beating breast cancer. My sister is taking chemo for breast cancer and I just had three wire localizations done and removed during biopsy on April 3, 2008. The three tissue samples were NOT cancerous, but I was diagnosed with Lobular Carcinoma in Situ and Atypical Lobular Hyperplasia. I am 47. It is a necessity to support all cancer awareness, including breast cancer awareness.

I do, but I think it’s blown WAY out of proportion- breast cancer awareness is commonplace, normal, and yet we rarely talk about or consider ‘comfortable’ the discussion of other cancers.
I think it’s harmful in terms of focusing on only ONE of the unique cancers that can kill women- there needs to be some balancing out in terms of awareness of OTHER cancers.

I do fully support breast cancer awareness
