Breast cancer occurs when malignant tumors develop in the breast. These cells can spread by breaking away from thr orginal tumor and entering blood vessesls or lymph vessesls, which branch into tissues throughout the body. When cancer cells travel to other parts of the body and begin damaging other tissues and organs, the process is call metatasis. Static; One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. It is the SECOND leading cause of death among women. MEN, we are not exempt. We are born with some breast cells and tissues and even though we do not develop milk-producing breast, we can still develop cancer. Breast cancer in men is usually detected as a hard lump underneath the nipple and areola. Static; estimated 2,150 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and approximately 410 will die each year. Cancer has affected my family, so in ELOISE STORRs memory, I share this information. We love and miss you dearly. #Awareness
