BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH~!

As some of you may or may not know this is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and I'm trying to help spread the word. For all of you Male and Females do them breast exams they are so important and if your over 40 you should schedule a mammogram. I did say Males as well because I have a friend that is a Male who also was diagnosed with breast cancer. Matter of fact He had it twice. He was a small frame person and noticed a lump and that something wrong and had it checked. This is usually referred to as a female cancer but it is not and I wanted to just mention this in case any Men happened to stop by and read this. If you don't have insurance ask your Dr. if they have a program in your area that offers free mammograms. I know where we live in Maine they had a program for free mammograms and pap smears. If never to late or to early to do this. If you feel a lump or anything that seems abnormal do not ignore it. If you questions about breast cancer this site may help
