The struggle people face with breast cancer,

is highlighted on this day,

the best thing is early detection,

if you want to keep its affects at bay,

breast cancer is the second biggest killer in women,

so if in doubt, seek medical attention, don't delay.


According to the World Health Organisation, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide, claiming hundreds of thousands of lives each year. With the decline of hormone replacement therapy after the menopause, there has been a significant reduction in breast cancer cases, death rates from this have fallen too which is due to better screening, earlier detection and more awareness. If in doubt always see a doctor.
