There was a young woman I worked with who grew increasingly quiet and sad. I finally approached her, and she told me she had found a lump in her breast. She hadn't been to the doctor because she was afraid of what she would learn. Fear can be paralyzing for individuals and for companies. But as the medical profession constantly reminds us, early detection saves lives.
Bladder cancer is very treatable if detected early and if patients receive appropriate care.
If we could turn back the clock and eliminate even the potential BNA exposure to our employees, we would. The health professionals here and at Baylor obviously have other work involving urinary tract illnesses. Just as we will benefit from their experience, we hope what they learn from us can be applied to their other research. As for the young woman I mentioned, she did eventually see her doctor, and the lump was benign. Yes, and I can count the ways.
