Commemorative Speech Susan G Komen

Breast cancer is overwhelmingly common. In fact, in 2013, there were an estimated 3,053,450 women living with female breast cancer in the united states (Howlader et al., 2013). This disease has such an immense impact on the lives that it touches. Therefore, it should be taken seriously and preventions should not be neglected. The purpose for this paper is to explore my health behavior change in regards to breast cancer prevention, while utilizing my support system. I will also apply the nursing process throughout my discussion about the behavior change.

VI. When I was born he taught me to be the strongest person I could be and to do my absolute best at everything I try.

Breast cancer affects one in every nine women in Britain, 45,000 women every year are diagnosed with it in some form or stage of development. Life style and cognitive interventions, i.e. counselling and psychotherapy can play an important part in how the patient deals with cancer in their lives and how they recover.

We have all seen the pink ribbons. They have become a national, if not international symbol for breast cancer support and awareness. Breast cancer knows neither racial boundaries nor age restrictions. Females of all ages and ethnicities can develop breast cancer and it is the leading most common cancer among women. Calling attention to this often fatal disease is important by supporting its victims, families and friends of victims, as well as raising funds for breast cancer research. Though males are not immune from developing a breast cancer, for the purposes of this paper, this paper will be limited to information relating breast cancer in females.

Many times in my life, I have received many lessons from my father. My father is a special man, he's nurtured me, cared for me in a way no man will ever get to do. My dad is someone who I can always say has been there for me, and i couldn't ever imagine life without him. Yet, there is one thing i can't ever forget. He's an alcoholic. My "dad" was never there, the alcohol was. There were times when i just couldn't believe to smell the alcohol on his breath. My whole life, my dad was in the Navy, so we moved around a lot. We never really had a home until i was around 7 years old, so through that time we struggled to have a real family due to us living out of boxes. When we bought our home in Harbor Ridge, things changed. My dad was really there, he went to my sporting events, he was home for dinner, and he was even there to tuck me into bed

“In return moving forward has assisted me in helping others grow in a positive way just as I did when I suffered through my battle.” “I branched out and helped another friend suffering from cancer as well and we supported each other.” She went out of her way to fundraise and be a part of breast cancer walks and runs to raise awareness and was successful in raising awareness and money to help research cures for breast cancer. “I was just happy to see how many people really got together to help raise awareness, it made my heart happy” she told me when asked to comment about her charity

Welcome to 2017! As we leave the old year behind, I find it hard to forget the often turbulent and contentious public dialogue about…well, almost everything. But there are too many havens of sanity for me to lose hope. One of the things that impressed me about the Coalition’s community of survivors from the moment I first walked through the door is its openness to people from all backgrounds, all interests, all walks of life. Breast cancer certainly doesn’t discriminate; quite the contrary, it levels the playing field. As survivors, we find ourselves reaching across political aisles, economic barriers, and

Audience Link: There is a large amount of men and women who are diagnosed with breast cancer everyday but they usually don’t know how it forms and ways it can be treated. Breast cancer is a very serious disease that shouldn’t be taken likely. Even if you do not have breast cancer, chances are that you know or will

I would like to introduced Susan G Komen and Nancy Bricker. These two girls are sisters and they are also best friends. Susan got diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 33 and lost her battle at the age of 36. Before Susan had passed Nancy had made a promise to Susan that she would end the terrible fight of breast cancer. Nancy her sister said this, “Her journey began with a simple promise to her dying sister, Susan G Komen that would do everything possible to end the shame, pain, fear, and hopelessness caused by this disease.” (Brinker, 2016) Nancy tried her hardest and during that trying period she created a foundation which is called the Susan G Komen Breast cancer foundation. Which was created in memory of her loving sister. Later

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among the world. Cancer affects almost every family in the United States and if it hasn’t then you should consider yourself lucky! I know that this terrible disease has affected my family tremendously. When I say that it has affected my family, I mean that it tore our world apart! Breast Cancer is something that I hold dear to my heart and will almost always be involved with in some way, shape, or form.

Breast Cancer affects one in eight of American women, and is the second most common cause of cancer death in America. I chose to write my term paper on breast cancer because it is a disease that has effected some members of my family. Due to this possibly inherited condition, I felt that researching the topic would help me learn ways to prevent the disease and educate myself to perform self-exams that may result in early detection.

Over the past three decades, awareness campaigns have saved women’s lives. By bringing what was originally a hushed conversation to light, countless women have benefitted from routine breast screenings and from the knowledge that breast cancer isn’t an automatic death sentence.

Breast Cancer is one of the most well-known cancers in today’s society. Or is it? What does society know about breast cancer other than it obviously is cancer of the breast? Breast cancer is very well advertised with the pink ribbons, the commercials and advertisements, the Breast Cancer walks, and the promotional information given out regarding mammograms. In today’s world there are several cancers, but breast cancer is very prevalent among women and men. This paper is designed to research what breast cancer is, in order to bring awareness through education.

When people hear breast cancer, they usually think of women first. Unfortunately, breast cancer can affect men as well, although at a slight lower rate. However, it is the most common type of cancer among women. For women, the breast becomes an important organ during childbirth, primarily for breast-feeding. Of course, every organ is important as they play their own vital roles; however, the breast takes on a number of significant roles to keep the body properly functioning. Unfortunately, as with most parts of the body, the breast is susceptible to disease, the most important and deadly of which is cancer. Learning about breast cancer is incredibly important because plenty of men and women may not have knowledge about the symptoms, and as the war on cancer wages on, we are losing more and more victims. Breast cancer cannot only affect you, but your friends, family, and loved ones as well. Hopefully, talking about the anatomy and functions of the breast, the problems and symptoms of breast cancer, and how to prevent it will help expand awareness of breast cancer and learn exactly what it does to the human body.

Breast cancer is the second leading cancer killer among women, after lung cancer (Breast Cancer , 2014). Cancer is a word that puts fear in many people, especially if they have family members who have either died or survived the disease. No one wants to hear that he or she has been diagnosed with any disease, especially cancer. Many women do not take breast cancer serious until they are diagnosed. Sadly, once diagnosed with this epidemic, a person’s life is altered forever. Breast cancer does not discriminate and can happen to anyone at any age. To prevent this disease, one must take the necessary precautions to lower the risk factors. In fact, there are several local and national events to remind people of breast cancer’s existence. Many
