My Mom and I participate in the Race For The Cure as our Mother's Day tradition. This year she celebrates her 16th year of breast cancer survivorship. This is a log only cache, though there is a ribbon pin for the FTF. As with the original Think Pink cache, you are encouraged to take a minute to think of others who are celebrating their survivorship and to remember those who have lost their fight against this disease. (Note: You can get to the cache site without having to pay for parking.)
Facts About Breast Cancer:* Every 2 minutes a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer.* More than 200,000 new cases of breast cancer are expected in the US this year.* One woman in eight who lives to age 85 will develop breast cancer in her lifetime.* Breast cancer is the leading cause of death in women between the ages of 40 and 55.* 1,600 men will die of breast cancer this year.* Seventy percent of all breast cancers are found through breast self-exams. Not all lumps are detectable by touch. Regular mammograms and monthly breast self-exams are recommended.* Eight out of ten breast lumps are not cancerous. If you find a lump, don't panic...call your doctor for an appointment. * Mammography is a low-dose X-ray examination that can detect breast cancer up to two years before it is large enough to be felt.* When breast cancer is found early, the five-year survival rate is 96%. This is good news! Over 2 million breast cancer survivors are alive in America today.
