Welcome October 1st. Cooler weather, the start of the holiday season and National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This month is about awareness and making sure family and friends are aware of how important self examination and annual examinations are. This is a disease that can be beat, if caught early. We want our family and friends to be around for a long time and this month is about making sure everyone knows there is no room for shyness. A fun way to show family and friends that this is an important subject and one that should not be ignored is to send them a handmade reminder card. I have created these reminder cards that you can send to your family and friends to remind them to schedule their mammograms. You could even offer to accompany them to their appointment if they are nervous or this is their first one. Believe me, this is NOT something I look forward to every year, but I faithfully get it done. Having family history with this disease, I want to make sure that if me or one of my sisters is unlucky enough to get this disease, we at least can catch it sooner rather than later, and try to beat it.
