October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Early detection is key in the fight against breast cancer. Let’s walk it out at the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer this Sunday at the Virginia War Memorial in Richmond, Virginia.
What is Breast Cancer? Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that starts in the cells of the breast. A malignant tumor is a group of cancer cells that can grow into (invade) surrounding tissues or spread (metastasize) to distant areas of the body. The disease occurs almost entirely in women, but men can get it, too.
Learn about cancer, specific types of cancer, diagnosis, early detection, risk factors, causes and important facts here.
Sign up to walk on Community Clo’s team Kimmee-Clo/Ladies of Elegance Inc. See you this Sunday.
