Link Of The Week Special Edition

It's that time of the year again, faithful readers - October is breast cancer awareness month.  This year in America, more than 211,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 43,300 die. One woman in eight either has or will develop breast cancer in her lifetime.  Let me put it to you this way - that's one out of every eight of my faithful readers.  Or one out of every seven female faithful readers and me. In addition, 1,600 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 400 will die this year. If detected early, the five-year survival rate exceeds 95%. Mammograms are among the best early detection methods, yet 13 million U.S. women 40 years of age or older have never had a mammogram.  I'll be the first to admit that mammograms aren't the most pleasant things to do, but they do save lives.  Support the National Breast Cancer Foundation today and give the gift of hope to those in .  Please take a minute each day to visit The Breast Cancer Site and click on http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/CTDSites.woa/wa/gotoSite?destSite=BreastCancerSite&ThirdPartyClicks=prcnbcf.  You can put the site in your favorites so you can can click each day, or if you are very forgetful like me, you can sign up for a daily email reminder to visit the site.  It's that simple.  So take a minute each day and do your part to get free mammograms to women who can't afford it.
