As of 2021, Breast Cancer is now the most common cancer in the world. While most people won’t get breast cancer in their lifetime, many of us know someone who has had it. And some of us have experienced it for ourselves. While many of us are “aware” that breast cancer exists, many of us don’t know much about our breast health.
When breast cancer is found in early stages, the survival rate is really high. But when it is found in the latest stage, Stage 4, the survival rate is low, and it becomes a life-long disease.
Join Luminary and Teyonna Bowman this October as she shares easy to digest (pun definitely intended) materials created by the Know Your Lemons Foundation, to discuss early detection. Early detection requires two things; knowing symptoms and knowing when to get screened, according to your risk.
Additionally, October is not just for Breast Cancer Awareness but also for Menopause Awareness.
This session will also briefly cover the menopause journey from the cancer survivor’s point of view and discuss resources available to all women. While not every woman will be directly impacted by breast cancer, all women will eventually reach menopause, so please join us for this engaging and important workshop.
