We’re going to draw attention to the fact that the vast majority of the people in these four pictures are men. This reminds us that while the vast majority of people diagnosed with Breast Cancer each year are women, about one percent of the total will be men.

So fellas, we want YOU to also pay attention to your breast health. While men use more manly terms, the fact is cancer doesn’t care what you call them, they are subject to the disease. Please be aware of changes in your body, soreness, changes in skin, or if you feel a lump. Paying attention to your body could get you off to an early start in your battle, which will greatly increase your chances of survival.
