✨ October is #BreastCancerAwareness month ✨ But we need to remember that this disease can take away many lives each day, month and year. The best way to stop this is acting on time, educate ourselves, and take the necessary precautions. 💕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👉🏼According to the American Cancer Society:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺About 1 in 8 U.S. women (about 12%) will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺In 2020, an estimated 276,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺About 42,170 women in the U.S. are expected to die in 2020 from breast cancer.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺A woman’s risk of breast cancer nearly doubles if she has a first-degree relative (mother, sister, daughter) who has been diagnosed with breast cancer.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔺About 85% of breast cancers occur in women who have no family history of breast cancer.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💬 💬 These numbers are shocking, the goal is not to scare you, but to create awareness and be part of this movement and spread the word to save lives. 🙏🏼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ -⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ With love from your @DTinas_ friends! ♥️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ DTinasBoutique.com
