check your breasts

Every woman in a population in this world has a 10% chance on getting breast cancer. Any history of the disease within the family can increase the risk percentage in two-folds or more. Being a woman and having the family history of the disease, I went to the doctor for a breast check. Correct technique to do Breast-Self Exam (BSE) was shown and the doctor advised to do BSE every month after menstruation cycle ends. A few days after the check up, I lost my idol, my hero, my love; Puan Aziah Mohamed Yusoff. Yes, it was a very sad moment but life must go on.

She was one of the few women who were defeated by cancer, but there are survivors out there. So there are chances of getting cured if you or anyone you one are affected by breast cancer. Early detection is the most important step to curb the disease and BSE is one of the ways to do it. It’s cheap and easy. So girls, do your own BSE. Guys, tell your mothers, sisters, aunties, girlfriends and other women that you know out there. Check out this website for more info.

and that's that
