Its Breast Cancer awareness this month

I wasn't going to post this here, but on my profile - unfortunately my newsfeed is down, a VERY close friend has been told she may have breast cancer. She's 18years old.
This has me thinking, all my life I've feared those words, my nan died of it before I was born - I happen to be the only one in the family with a similar size to her.

I'm posting this because I'm praying to god that this will get all the ladies to check themselves, its about knowing your body and whats right. In this case ignorance isn't bliss. And if this post can change someones view to check themselves, get those around them to do the same, then I'll be happy.

It takes less than 5minutes and for guys out there, this could be your chance to "check em out" for her :blushing:

My motto is, if you like them or have them check them

    <----I just got a tattoo for my Mom, who is a survivor, on Monday. She's my hero. She went through a 2 lumpectomies, a double mastectomy and full reconstruction. She's been cancer free since July 22, 2010.

    Don't forget, guys can get breast cancer too.

    And guys, don't forget to check your boys and make sure you do not get testicular cancer.
