Breast Cancer Awareness Month

... where pink means hope! October is a special month for me as I celebrate my birthday on 19th... however I am glad it is also a month for breast cancer awareness.  Data shows that about 1500 lives are lost simply because of not regularly checking/examining your breasts for lumps and physical changes. Breast examination is not that complicated and there is ample data over the internet to examine yourself in the correct way.  There is a website (among so many) which I came across  www.breastcancernow.org which gives guidance on the subject and it also suggests an app Breast Check Now which is quite user friendly and also prompts on regular examination. October 21 is National Mammography Day. Well, this post is less of my talk and more of an urge to go get yourself examined and also ask your mom, sis, friend, grandma, neighbor and so on to get themselves examined as well.
