Breast Cancer October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women in the United States.
One out of nine women in the U.S. will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. Breast cancer cannot be prevented, but it can be detected at an early, treatable stage. If detected early, breast cancer can often be treated effectively. Since early detection can make such a huge difference in survival of women who have breast cancer, it is important to get that word out. In cooperation with the Publishers' Breast Cancer Awareness promotion, BookBrowser has donated its home page banner to the cause of breast cancer awareness for this month.
