October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. According to researchers, breast cancer is
the second most common kind of cancer in women.
In the United States, about 1 in 8 women will get breast cancer at some point
in their life. The good news is that
many women will survive breast cancer if it is found and treated early. Prevention is one of the best defense. A mammogram is the screening test for breast
cancer. It can help find breast cancer
early when detected. National Breast
Cancer Awareness Month is one way to raise awareness about the importance of early
detection of breast cancer. Also, the
library has various resources available on breast cancer. If you want to know
