If they have breast cancer than they are getting treated for it and the treatments have costs that can forever change their lives. I know because my wife is going through breast cancer treatment.

She has not been able to work for half a year, the chemotherapy is tough on her, she had to get a mastectomy and lives with one less breast that also is hard, and then she will be going through radiation.

It causes physical and emotional pain, it costs a lot of money to fight the disease there are a lot of expenses not covered by insurance. And she cries a lot and I have learned to just hold her when the tears begin to flow.

She is too tired to do anything for the last two days. She is not the same she was before cancer hit, and she will not be the same when it leaves.

And you always have at the back of your mind the fear that it could come back again, but you cannot think about that.

The lifestyle they had before cancer well, that no longer exists. You will never be the same as you were before the diagnosis. It has a huge toll that you pay to recover from this terrible disease.

Breast cancer changes live forever, and even ends it in some more severe cases.

I love this woman. She is bold, blunt and so right.

youre great, and you look gorgeous!!!!!

There are a number of risk factors for the development of breast cancer, including:

family history of breast cancer in mother or sister
early onset of menstruation and late menopause
reproductive history: women who had no children or have children after age 30 and women who have never breastfed have increased risk
history of abnormal breast biopsies
Though these are recognized risk factors, it is important to note that more than 70% of women who get breast cancer have no known risk factors. Having several risk factors may boost a woman's chances of developing breast cancer, but the interplay of predisposing factors is complex. In addition to those accepted factors listed above, some studies suggest that high-fat diets, obesity, or the use of alcohol may contribute to the risk profile. Another factor that may contribute to a woman's risk profile is hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

HRT provides significant relief of menopausal symptoms, prevention of osteoporosis, and possibly protection from cardiovascular disease and stroke. However, studies show that there is a small increased risk of developing breast cancer with HRT use. Thus, the use of hormone replacement therapy should be based on personal risk factors.

Of all the risk factors listed above, family history is the most important. In The Biological Basis of Cancer, the authors estimate that probably about half of all familial breast cancer cases (families in which there is a high breast cancer frequency) have mutations affecting the tumor suppressor gene BRCA-1. Another gene (BRCA-2) also appears to confer inherited vulnerability to early-onset breast cancers. However, breast cancer due to heredity is only a small proportion of breast cancer cases; only 5%-10% of all breast cancer cases will be women who inherited a susceptibility through their genes. Nevertheless, when the family history is strong for development of breast cancer, a woman's risk is increased.

Not all lumps detected in the breast are cancerous. Fibrocystic changes in the breast are extremely common. Also known as fibrocystic condition of the breast, fibrocystic changes are a leading cause of non-cancerous lumps in the breast. Fibrocystic changes also cause symptoms of pain, swelling, or discharge and may become evident to the patient or physician as a lump that is either solid or filled with fluid. Complete diagnostic evaluation of any significant breast abnormality is mandatory because though women commonly develop fibrocystic changes, breast cancer is common also, and the signs and symptoms of fibrocystic changes overlap with those of breast cancer.-

As long as it is healthy( not smoking not eating badly) you can do just about anything after having breast cancer if you have a mastecomy there is some weakening in the arm on that side and sometimes swelling problems but you can do a variety of things in spite of it. I would say the worst lifestyle would be sedentary.

Gawd Susan you are such a funny woman! You are so dramatic, I love it!!!!

Soy Sauce, use it with every meal.

Susan I remember a show like that, it was YOUR SHOW back in the 90’s. It was amazing and I was sad to see it end.

Susan you are awesome. You showed it could be done, long, long ago. It’s so inspiring that after all these years you’ve kept the weight off.

I don't know what your question is. I don't see a question.
?

I agree with the study that nutrition plays a big part in whether or not anyone will get any kind of cancer.

Did you know that one of the deficiencies that is linked to breast cancer is "iodine deficiency"?

In fact more than 90% of us are deficient in iodine.

I just received and started reading the book, "Iodine, Why You Need It. Why You Can't Live Without It" by David Brownstein, M.D.

If this interests you then I recommend getting a copy for yourself.

It could well be that the bad diet the study refers to involves eating foods that are iodine deficient and foods that contain bromine/bromide.

According to http://www.breastcancerchoices.org/bromidedominancetheory.html

Potassium bromate as an additive to most commercial bread and baked
goods probably provides the most egregious contribution to bromide overload
in Western cultures.

Bromated flour is product "enriched" with potassium bromate. Some
commercial bakers claim they use bromated flour because it yields
dependable results, and it makes more elastic dough which can stand up to
bread hooks and other commercial baking tools. (22) However, Pepperidge
Farm manages to use only unbromated flour with excellent results.

NOTE ON BANNING POTASSIUM BROMATE IN BREAD:

The UK banned bromate in bread in 1990.
Canada banned bromate in bread in 1994. (23)
Proposal P230 in Australia: Food Regulation Ministerial Council (FSANZ) still
has not finalized its July 2007 proposal to mandate iodized salt in breads,
breakfast cereals and biscuits.

Back in 1999, the Center for Science in the Public Interest petitioned the FDA
to prohibit the use of potassium bromate, charging that the FDA has known
for years that bromate causes cancer in lab animals, but has failed to ban it.
(24) As of September 2007, the US FDA responded to Breast Cancer Choices
inquiry with the statement, " Potassium Bromate is still listed as a safe
additive……………………..
Bromine/bromide blocks to receptors needed to absorb iodine. Many years ago iodine/iodide was added to bread but not anymore. The rda for iodine is a mere 150 mcg when evidence indicates we need much much more. The average Japanese woman consumes over 13 mg a day. [1000 mcg = 1 mg] Japanese have a much lower incidence of breast cancer.

Read the book.

Funny thing, I find this no more inappropriate than any other "breast cancer awareness". What I find inappropriate is having it constantly shoved at me. I am aware that breast cancer exists, I am aware of how to have it diagnosed. My aunt had a radical double mastectomy. I don't wear pink ribbons, have a pink bumper sticker or donate money to a "foundation" that makes sure that cents on the dollar goes to research.

In fact the incidence of breast cancer haven't increased significantly in the last couple of decades.

Any small increase can be accounted for by improved and more widespread screening, and the fact that better health care means that more people are living longer. Breast cancer (like most other cancers) is mainly a disease of ageing – 80% of those diagnosed are over 50 and the average age at diagnosis is a little over 60 – so the more people live into old age, the more cases of breast (and other) cancers there will be.

The causes of breast cancer are not known, so it can't be described as a lifestyle disease. Between 5 and 10% of breast cancer cases are hereditary, and other than that the causes are unknown.

There are known risk factors, and one or two of them are avoidable – being overweight, especially after the menopause, increases your risk, so does regular consumption of more than one unit of alcohol daily. A risk factor is not a cause though, and most women who tick both those boxes don't get breast cancer.

There is no reason to suppose your risk of breast cancer is increasing; it will increase as you get older, but there has been no huge (or even moderate) statistical increase in the numbers of breast cancer cases.

Herpes, you are one of those San Fran nut jobs who call themselves liberals and who give liberals a bad name.

Preach it! I thought the same exact thing. I am SO glad to have found your vids here. Was a big fan years ago & recently found ya on Twitter. Keep motivating people the way you do – things need to change!

you are so deep my friend!

Ballgag, you wouldn’t know liberal if it bit you on the nasal bone. You’re still assuming things and you’re still wrong.

Well, actually, since I don’t know what you’re puking about now (or at least can’t identify the latest stereotype you’re beating) I have no idea if you’re wrong or not.

But I’m definitely not from San Fran.
