Hmm....nominate only 7 blogs? Sorry Monica, I broke the rule of the tag.

Breast cancer awareness

In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, think pink if you love your boobs. It is never too late, or too early to learn how to perform monthly Self Breast Examination (SBE). As a mother, it is crucial to educate my daughter the importance of early detection of breast cancer.

All women particularly 40 and over should get mammogram and clinical breast exam yearly. Sadly, there are still many women who are completely ignorant about this. Most women tend to take things for granted. This is something we can't afford to be negligent about.

It goes without saying that women losing their boobs can be devastating. I'm sure it's tough for any women to go through this ordeal. Naturally it could have a massive impact on their lives.

It's rather difficult when someone you love dearly is battling cancer and not just breast cancer. Losing someone you love is never easy. Realising that you'll never see them again is even harder.

Obviously, it affects the whole environment of the family and close friends. We should be well informed to survive this.
