October
is Breast Cancer Awareness
PINK
As a
breast cancer survivor, I have gained a lot of knowledge throughout the five
years that I have been managing cancer. The key word is not pink; but
prevention.
One out
of every third person gets breast cancer.
Just imagine you sitting in the waiting room along with two other women
waiting for a mammogram. The chances are that one of you has cancer. To me that
is not preventing you from not having cancer.
What is preventing you from not getting cancer is education. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.
My hopes
and goal is to have every school offer a class on prevention and how to
maintain a healthier lifestyle. As I was
gathering material on what can cause cancer, I learned that it’s not just one
thing that we need to look at.
1. You are what you eat!! It can be the foods
you are eating. Cancer feeds on processed
sugar and wheat. So stay away from
them. Chemicals are in our foods. So eat all organic foods.
2. It can be the products that we use such as;
soap, deodorant, shampoo, hair dye, laundry detergent. It’s anything that you have in contact
with. It only takes 29 seconds to absorb
in your skin. GO ORGANIC
3. Exercise, may it be dancing, a sport, walking,
swimming or going to the gym. Moving for a least ten minutes can contribute to
good health.
4. Meditation, Yoga and breathing techniques
helps with the stress and keeps your mind healthier.
5. Sometimes supplements are needed to build
your immune system up.
These
are steps to ward off cancer. Cancer cannot
live in heat and oxygen. So, if you have
to kick start to fight this disease, then go for a procedure that doesn’t cause
your immune system to get weak and that has long term side effects. There are so many methods that manages
cancer, but if you do not take care of yourselves after the fact, the cancer is
not going to go away. See cancer happens
for a reason ~ so you not only have to kill it, but take care of it from the
core and maintain your health.
Coming
from my heart, pink is out. Instead of
donating for someone to find out they have cancer. Why not just educate people on how to stop it
from beginning in the future. It’s free to gain knowledge, for the internet is
a great way to gain information. That is
the first step of awareness. Join me in this petition to have education in the
schools in learning preventions and awareness of cancer. Also, for insurance companies to pay for
other methods to fight this disease. It
should not be a hardship for anybody to experience. Take a stand and help me change the thinking
of cancer.
