October is BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH



This month is breast Cancer awareness month , and actually last October the 10th my grandmother Momo Zemma passed away from. I miss her so much, we had an amazing relationship, she was a down to earth cool woman , who i could talk to and have fun with. She did so much good for this workd and was just getting started. I was one of the last voices that she heard also. I sang to her "You are so Beautiful"  I wanted to take this time to give some info on Breast cancer links to other cancer sites and ways you can stay aware of your health ladies.

-There are also other types of Cancer as well that can be or are just as imporant as breast cancer here is a link to info on other cancers to be aware of http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/types/alphalist   I hope that this informs you and gives you the education needed to spread the word on cancer and living a healthy long life.

-Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the United States, aside from skin cancer. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), an estimated 192,370 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed among women in the United States this year. An estimated 40,170 women are expected to die from the disease in 2009 alone. Today, there are about 2.5 million breast cancer survivors living in the United States
