IT'S BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

3 women in my family have gone through the pain this illness can cause. 2 are currently undergoing treatment, and thankfully one has survived.

This disease is incredibly close to my heart because of how close I've experienced it this year ❤️
We know that having a family member with breast cancer can define your chances of getting it, but in 70% of cases, there is no family history to warn you...

Breast cancer is SCARY AF. Heartbreaking even. It's no joke and shows you how fragile our loved ones can be.
This is why early detection is CRITICAL for a good prognosis.

So examine yourself and go to your checkups and yearly screenings if you're over 40.

IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
Also, support your local NGOs and charities if you can.
