My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of author Miriam Engelberg today. Miriam lost her lengthy battle against the dreaded disease. If you missed my review of her book - http://www.roundtablereviews.com/roundtable/Archives/engelbergmiriam62206.htm
Please, if you can, continue to donate to any breast cancer fund. Every little bit counts!

Common Breast Cancer Myths
The first myth pertaining to this disease is that it only affects women.
Second myth that is associated with this disease is that if one has found a lump during an examination, it is cancer.
Third is that it is solely hereditary
The next myth associated with breast cancer is downright ridiculous. Would you believe, that in this day and age, some individuals still think that breast cancer is contagious?
Conversely, some individuals foolishly believe that breast size determines whether or not one gets cancer.
Finally, another myth that is associated with this disease is that it only affects older people. This is not so. Although the chance of getting breast cancer increases with age, women as young as 18 have been diagnosed with the disease.
