Breast Cancer Blog

October 2006 (Medialink) - In 2006, of the 212,920 women in the U.S. diagnosed with breast cancer, approximately 25% will have tumors that carry the HER2 gene. This gene causes a more aggressive form of breast cancer, greater likelihood of recurrence, poorer prognosis and decreased survival - compared to women with other forms of breast cancer. The results of a HER2 test can give a woman insight into her breast cancer and help her and her physician make more informed decisions about appropriate treatment options. Women should ask if a HER2 test has been done on their breast cancer and discuss the test results with their physician.

To help empower women everywhere to ask their doctors for a HER2 test, fashion designer Daniella Clarke of Frankie B. is announcing a national public awareness campaign called “HER2 Genes.” This campaign is designed to raise awareness among women about HER2-positive breast cancer and the importance of HER2 testing through a new and unique avenue: fashion.

By purchasing a pair of “HER2 Genes” online from now until November, Frankie B. will donate all of the proceeds to Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization, whose mission is to raise awareness and help women today who can’t wait for tomorrow’s cure. Daniella hopes the “Genes” will become a symbol of empowerment for the thousands of women who will be diagnosed with HER2-positive disease each year. For more information about the HER2 Genes campaign, visit www.her2genes.com or www.y-me.org.

So yesterday I heard about Donna’s “Crappy News” (www.youtube.com/user/Journey2betrhealth )…

I have actually been working on this video, slowly but surely, for the last couple of weeks. A friend of mine just found out she has breast cancer, and is going through treatment right now. Another friend of mine just found out that her battle against breast cancer is not over, like she had thought. So seeing Donna’s video inspired me to FINALLY finish this video…

So this one is dedicated to……
“All of those who have lost the fight, and those who won’t quit the fight.”

Everyone please say some major prayers for Donna and my two friends… That’s what big families are for… and in my opinion, the WLSLosersBench is one big family!
