Very few of us would not seek out information about breast cancer if it weren't for people we love facing the challenge of conquering it. The exception would be, of course, those men and women that choose to become cancer specialists or Oncologists.

Do we call them doctors or do we call them heroes? These amazing humans step into one of the toughest medical arenas and make a difference in the world one patient at a time.

Most of us tip toe through life hoping avoid having to know anything about breast cancer. It's almost like a superstition; if I don't think about it, it can't touch me.
