Re: Breast cancer survivorship 101

[Guest guest]

A friend who is younger than me just died a very agonizing death from ovarian

cancer. My doctor tells me there is no real way to catch ovarian cancer while

it's still in its early, treatable stages. Has anyone heard anything to the

contrary? My knees are knocking over here!

Subject: [ ] Breast cancer survivorship 101

I know some of our members have had breast cancer or are currently

being treated for it. I hope this information is helpful for you. It's rare to

find a woman who hasn't been personally affected by breast cancer-either she

knows a friend who has been diagnosed, has had a family member face the disease,

or has been through the fire herself. It's no wonder that increasingly more

women can cite the most common breast cancer statistic: one in eight women in

the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
