October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. As I sit and reflect on that, I'm reminded that it's been a year since I started blogging about breast health. In that time, many women learned they have the disease; many others fought it and didn't make it; others are in the fight of their lives right now; and many are celebrating the victory of being cancer free for days, weeks, months, or years. This disease does not care who it touches. It does not wait for you to be strong enough or emotionally ready to face it. It attacks whoever and whenever. Your best line of defense is a darn good offense. So, having said that, let's get really personal here. If you don't get around to doing anything else today, stop....check yourself for lumps. It only takes a minute. Most lumps aren't found with fancy machines or imaging. They're found with your two best pieces of God-given equipment -- righty and lefty! Take a second to inspect the girls! If there is something wrong, the earlier you find it, the better your chances are to kick cancer's a$$!!!
