Since October is breast cancer awareness month...

Examining your breasts is an important way to find a breast cancer early, when it's most likely to be cured.

Thank you for the reminder, Lisbeth.  All of us who have breasts are eligible to get breast cancer.

I have read that having very dense breast tissue increases the possibility of having breast cancer.  I examine myself at least twice a month and get a mammogram every 18 months or so.
