Welcome to
“Link to the Pink”!
You have clicked on a simple on line resource for links dealing with everything related to Breast Cancer. As the National Breast Cancer Foundation states,
“One in eight women will develop breast cancer at some point in her life. This statistic affects all women equally. You may have a one in eight chance of developing breast cancer, but so does your doctor…and your hairdresser…and the big-name actress in your favorite movie. Rich or poor, famous or unknown, the disease treats everyone the same.”
Additionally, Breast Cancer affects a surprising number of men as well. Whether you are female or male who is affected, or know someone who is, we hope you will take time during October to examine, read, absorb, share, and utilize the links that will help you increase your knowledge, and in turn your ability to cope with Breast Cancer, whether it’s for yourself or someone you love.
