Thanks for posting. It feels really difficult to live healthy on a sick planet! Moreover it's hard to know sometimes if and when in your life you are exposed to these numerous carcinogens.

Re: STATE OF THE EVIDENCE: THE CONNECTION BETWEEN BREAST CANCER & THE ENVIRONMENT Rep
Hi Ellie-
Ellie,
You said that very well---
"It feels really difficult to live healthy on a sick planet!"
I think that the first thing it takes is being aware that we are living on a sick planet--and yest you are right many of us were exposed to these toxins when we were younger--in the 50's-60's ---
A great read is Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring"--Rachel Carsons book ignited the environmental movement and was responsible for having DDT banned in this country--please note that it is legal in other countries--
No coincidence she had breast cancer while writing it---early 60's--her foundation has some great info on their website--

Re: STATE OF THE EVIDENCE: THE CONNECTION BETWEEN BREAST CANCER & THE ENVIRONMENT Rep
Just received the following from AndiBB, a long-term Her2 survivor who has contributed many inspiring postings. It has something to do with the environment, so I'm posting it here:
EXCELLENT IDEA!!!
