Breast Cancer Awareness

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month, and I think it’s very important that we all take a minute to learn more about this disease.

A member of my family is a survivor of breast cancer, and I am very grateful that she had the strength and courage to get through what was a very scary time for all of us in her family, let alone what must have been devastating to her herself.

Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women and is the second most lethal, behind lung cancer.

Women should get a mammography or have abnormalities checked out immediately.

This isn’t much that a lot of people don’t already know. And this is just the tip of the iceberg and is just some stuff I learned today. But I thought I would join in the call for awareness and support the cause.

    Hello Brad,

    I was surfing the web, and I found you. There are not too many Bice’s so I wondered if we may be connected in some way. My last name Bice is through marriage.

    I like the website.
