Tomorrow marks the first day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month 💕

Breast cancer that’s found early, when it’s small and has not spread, is easier to treat successfully.

If you haven’t already, schedule your mammogram today!

🌸With screening and early detection, we can save lives🌸

40 percent of the lives saved by mammography are in women younger than 50. Women are encouraged to get their first mammogram at age 40, and annually thereafter. Seventy-five percent of women diagnosed with breast cancer have no family history.

“Your path is harder because your calling is higher”

You are not destined to be the same as everyone else. Our paths are meant to be different for a reason. Not only do our unique challenge make us face our fears, but they also test our limits, channel our energy, call us to action, and inspire us to be courageous. Hard times are life’s way of testing us and teaching us how to persevere - making us stronger and preparing us for something even greater.

March 6th is World Lymphedema Day with the goal to make cures for lymphedema and lymphatic diseases a global priority.

During surgery for cancer, nearby lymph nodes are often removed. This disrupts the flow of lymph, which can lead to swelling. This is lymphedema.
