December 1, 2010 Breast Cancer Rates Lower With Less Hormone Therapy: Study
Reduced use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is linked to declines in rates of invasive breast cancer and ductal
carcinoma in ... What do you think?
January 11, 2010 From 10connects.com in Tampa, Florida comes this interesting news - science catching up with what we have been told
so many times ---Pomegranite may fight some breast cancers. "We were surprised by our findings," principal investigator Shiuan Chen, co-
leader of the Breast Cancer Research Program at City of Hope in Duarte, Calif., said in a news release. "We previously found other fruits, such
as grapes, to be capable of the inhibition of aromatase. But, phytochemicals in pomegranates and in grapes are different." Aromatase is an
enzyme linked to the developement of estrogen-responsive breast cancer. http://www.wtsp.com/news/health/story.aspx?

January 11, 2010 Discounted wedding gowns benefit breast cancer. Wow, at the Pittsburgh event, brides-to-be
were able to purchase their wedding dresses 25-75% off regular prices AND help ladies in the advanced stages of breast cancer. Is there a
similar Gowns from Brides Against Breast Cancer event happening in your area? Check it out at the Making Memories Web site www.

June 11, 2009 A night of hope and support - Relay for Life - in Brandon, Manitoba
on Friday, May 29,2009. Teams set up their tents Friday in the extremely gusty winds,
preparing for the 12 hour walk 7 pm to 7 am Saturday morning. What a moving sight to
see the survivors' walk (Darlene from JSAW Mastectomy Designs among them as a
breast cancer survivor), and then to see teams of 2-8 people walking in relays of support
around the lighted oval at the Riverbank Discovery Center, Brandon. To the right is a
picture of JSAW Mastectomy Designs' booth in the Smart Shop Tent at the Relay for Life.
June 11, 2009 A night of hope and support - Relay for Life - in Hamilton, Ontario on Friday, June 9. A deeply emotional experience for many
as they walked in teams thinking of the fight for life after being diagnosed with breast cancer and other cancers. It was also a time to feel the
warmth and overwhelming support of loved ones and fellow survivors. Read more about Hamilton's Relay for Life at http://www.

"Fifty-one Genes Predict Breast Cancer Survival
— It may be possible in the future to use a specimen from the tumour to determine which patients with breast cancer have a good chance of
overcoming the disease, and which patients should be given more intensive treatments. Fifty-one genes may together provide information about
the prognosis for an individual patient. These are the conclusions of a thesis presented at the Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg,
Sweden." To read more http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/06/090610160908.htm
June 10, 2009 Certain genetic variations in people are possibly interferring with the effectiveness of chemotherapy drugs. A National
Cancer Institute led team did a study on 600 American and Norwegian breast cancer patients. The results of this study could lead to the
development of a diagnostic test that shows if an individual has these genetic variations. To read more click on the web address http://www.

- It's a powerful word, Sharon Cissna told a House subcommittee Wednesday. And each time she said it to a growing
circle of TSA agents, airport workers, and police in Seattle last month, she felt more confident. "No," the Democrat
from Anchorage recalled saying, "I will not be physically touched. I will leave the airport. There will be another way to
return to the statehouse in Juneau."
She used the word horror to describe what happened in November, when she was returning from surgery and her
prosthetic breast triggered a whole-body-imaging machine alarm. She likened the pat-down to a "feeling up."
March, 2011 Here are some sites that discuss Vitamin D and breast cancer
- I just discovered this news, and now have
been told it was in the news last year, but thought I'd pass these on to you anyway because of the huge connection
between the two.

- "George's Hospital Medical School in London finds local production of vitamin D in breast tissue reduces the risk for
breast cancer. For women with low breast tissue levels of vitamin D the risk for breast cancer rose by 354%! This
study suggests women sunbathe with breast tissue exposed to the sun to enhance local vitamin D production. The
provision of 400 IU of vitamin D per day has been found to reduce the risk of pancreatic cancer by 43%".

- "Publishing in the journal Anticancer Research, researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of
Medicine and Creighton University School of Medicine have found that much higher levels of the sunshine vitamin are
necessary to prevent or markedly reduce the incidence of breast cancer and other chronic conditions."
