Great advances…
Singer and breast cancer survivor Sheryl Crow, who is doing a great deal to raise awareness about breast cancer.I think there are amazingly great advances being made in cancer research. I’ve met so many amazing doctors who are impassioned and convicted about finding a cure. Just the advances that have been made in the last few years regarding gene research as well as effective treatment are encouraging. We are past the time when the mastectomy is the only solution. It has only been in the last 20 years that lumpectomy and radiation/chemo became a viable option to having the entire breast removed.
October was Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Survival stories, issues and more reports here. Also an incredibly courageous photo essay that brought tears to my eyes.
