Love your breast - Think Pink!

Hi people (especially to all ladies), hope you'll not get offended when I just said 'LOVE YOUR BREAST'....please have an open mind because the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign month just ended (in October). Yesterday, I attended a Breast Cancer Awareness Public Forum "Dream Beyond Cancer" organised by the The Rotary Club of Kinabalu Sutera & The Inner Wheel Club of Kota Kinabalu and they invited speakers - Dato' Dr Suseela Nair, Senior Consultant Breast Surgeon & Dr Ravi Mandalam, Consultant Radiologist to speak..of course to talk on none other than Breast Cancer, which 99% of sufferers are women and 1% are men (ya..men can get breast cancer too). The talk was very interesting and it really made me want to take care and love my breast more by knowing the signs of breast cancer and screen my breast regularly by breast self examination.

These items of the Pink Ribbon was my purchase that day as my contribution to support the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign, and my money will go to the Breast Cancer Welfare Association Malaysia (BCWA). So I don't mind spending cos it's pretty pinky stuffs too.

One of my aunt died of breast cancer and I'm not sure if it runs in my family....so I need to be aware!

So to all women (and perhaps men too..just FYI), never be afraid to examine your breasts or to have them examined. Finding out that you do not have breast cancer is more important than the time and effort required for an examination, or any discomfort you may feel. Protect yourself through early detection. You will have better treatment options and a better chance of recovery. More info on breast cancer, you may login to http://www.breastcancer.org.my/ and Think Pink Foundation.

I'm now proudly supporting women with breast cancer!
