Fight Like a Lady

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month...my family has been extremely fortunate in that we have not been effected by this horrible disease...but we nevertheless are fighting to make sure that no other families have to be effected by it either...

Some facts about Breast Cancer...(according to Susan G Komen for the Cure)...

*5% of cases occur in women under 40
*In 2011, in the U.S., it is estimated that there will be 230,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women
*In 2011, it is estimated that 39,520 women in the U.S. will die from breast cancer

*Men are also at risk for breast cancer
*In 2011, in the U.S., it is estimated that there will be 2,140 new cases of invasive breast cancer in men
*In 2011, it is estimated that 450 men in the U.S. will die from breast cancer
