SURVIVING & THRIVING THROUGH BREAST CANCER
This year alone, about 300,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and nearly 40,000 will die of the disease. As you know, October is breast cancer awareness month. You're going to see pink ribbons everywhere from the grocery store shelves to the NFL playing fields. We think one of the most important ways you can arm yourself with life-saving information is to meet the women and men on the forefront of this battle -- survivors themselves. All month long, we'll be sharing their stories and hope they educate you and give you inspiration to face whatever battles come your way in life.
