Excellent article, Val! I thought the cover art was terrific. But it seems risque for Wisconsin! LOL What magazine is this? Obviously not one that would sell in Wal-Mart.
Two other thoughts. I was surprised to read that 10% of women with bc have family backgrounds. When I was a speaker for The Komen Foundation 3 years ago, we were told it was around 30%. Has this changed?
Also, you failed to mention the #1 risk factor of breast cancer--being a woman! I think this emphasizes the point that even if you exercise regularly and eat great, you are, unfortunately, still a candidate.
One other web site that helped me tremendously when I was first going through bc was "SusanLoveMD.com." Some consider Dr. Love a radical, but she provided many answers to my never-ending questions.
Val, do you do a lot of freelance writing work?
Love and light,
Lisa
