October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month




Each year it is estimated that nearly 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and more than 40,000 will die. Approximately 1,700 men will also be diagnosed with breast cancer and 450 will die each year. The evaluation of men with breast masses is similar to that in women, including mammography.


It it very important that you schedule exams every three years and the you perform self exams on yourself.  For more information please visit this website http://www.nationalbreastcancer.org


In honor of Breast Cancer Month A Radiant You by Crystal Razor will give 2 women a free makeup session.  Send in your pictures of you with your pink shirts or ribbons and 2 women will be choosen.  Many of us have been affected by this disease, and I hope we stand together to show our support for our sisters, our mothers and our friends please nominate someone today.
