How many of you have known or lost someone to breast cancer? Or had it yourself?

Just wondering about the percentages a bit… My thoughts are with you and wanted to say so this month… Peace!
Thanks to all who share their feelings here!
Have to let you guys choose this one, it wouldn’t be right for me to pick…

    My teacher in 5th grade is a breast cancer survivor. She was my teacher a year after her diagnosis. SHe wore a wig everyday to class and somedays she couldn’t work because of her chemo.

    My grandmother is a survivor of breast cancer…she did have to get one of her breasts removed and now has no lymphnodes in her left arm, meaning if she bruises or gets hurt in that arm it will take years to heal. There’s a chance that I could get it since it runs in the family and I do what I can to get checked out.

    I had a friend Named Lisa who developed breast cancer.
    She died because of it.
    during her strugle with it I discovered that 10% ofall breast cancer victims are men! As a man it made me think, alot.
    Montel Williams was missdiagnosed with it when he was a teen ager, and had to have a double mastectomy. look it up.

    I am a 7 year breast cancer survivor. My older sister was diagnosed 2 months ago and is undergoing radiation.

    BTW, she breast-fed all 4 of her children so the “if you breast feed you greatly reduce your chances of getting breast cancer” is a myth.
