"Breast cancer conjures up endless amounts of anxiety and fear. Everyone is familiar with what pink represents, but what about the blue? This documentary (still in the making I think) takes a look at Male Breast Cancer and the importance of getting tested for the BRCA Gene."

Thank you Paula for the link to this YouTube video. It's had only 55 views so far but the personal stories of the filmmakers are powerful and when the documentary comes out I'm betting it will help a lot of men who up to then had no idea they too can get this terrible disease along with the women they love. Thanks again,--bird

Also of note:

84 MEN dxd with breast cancer at Camp LeJeune. Tragedy. Truth.

Wondering, anyone outside of Phil/Lorraine/Pete's circle know about this? Why isn't this front-page news? Everyone should know.
