I come from a family with a history of breast cancer. I've lost
my mother, three sisters, and a niece to breast cancer.
I just want to urge every woman to not just listen to the advice
given about self breast exams and getting mammograms, but to follow
that advice. I feel that a lot of younger women feel that the
advice does not apply to them. My niece, who was 39 years old, died
from breast cancer in June. She left behind two beautiful
daughters. Because of her age, she had never had a mammogram, but
she also admitted that she rarely examined her breast.
Do your self-exams, get your mammograms. Early detection saves
lives.
