Remember, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀. Save the TaTa's!

Got a whole new meaning for me.
Last expanded genetic test showed a mutated CHEK -2 gene.
It’s known and been studied to increase breast cancer incidence 22-44% in females. It ha not been studied in men. Thankfully my last 2 mammograms show no evidence of breast cancer. They are however very dense and ‘ florid’ on the report. This makes early detection a bit more difficult.

I hope all here have been schooled in BSE. Breast self examination. It’s not hard and could save one from a bleak diagnosis.
Regards, Bob

It is!  Being a cancer survivor for 22 years I do watch and do self exams. 
I hope others do as well.
