OCTOBER 2010
MONTHLY NEWSLETTER SPOTLIGHT-News Story of the Month October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month itself is celebrating 25 years of Awareness, Education and Empowerment. Since its inception a quarter century ago, NBCAM has been at the forefront of promoting awareness of breast cancer issues. Today, NBCAM recognizes that although many great strides have been made in breast cancer awareness and treatment, there remains much to be accomplished. Women are all reminded to take charge of their own breast health by practicing regular self-breast exams to identify any changes, scheduling regular visits and annual mammograms with their
healthcare provider, adhering to prescribed treatment, and knowing the facts about recurrence.
