Breast Cancer Awareness – A Meme Worth Participating In

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time when you’ll see more pink products than any other time of the year (unless you’re a Mary Kay salesperson). Although a lot of “pinking” will happen in the corporate space, this is a perfect example of a meme I’d like to see spread around the microblogging sphere.

We’ve covered some large, sweeping memes in months past, like mangavatars and 080808, but this meme has the potential to spread awareness and help save lives through education.

Take a moment to consider adopting a pink avatar for the month of October and help spread the word.

And, for those of you who run your own blogs or websites, take a look at Pink for October, an effort to get websites to Go Pink during the month of October to bring attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month, get people talking about breast cancer and raise money for research.

    There are common signs or symptoms of breast cancer :

    1. The most obvious sign of this ailment is a lump in the breast or armpit. A self-examination test, once a month, or a visit to the doctor can expose any lump in this area.

    2. Change in the size of the breast & shape. If you notice any unusual changes in its shape or size, do not ignore it.

    3. There is nipple inversion & spontaneous single nipple discharge. If you observe that your nipples are turning inwards, this may be an indication that everything is not working as well.

    4. Pain in the breast is not a reliable symptom but can also be indicative of other breast problems.

    One way that helps patients to get rid of pains and side effects is that going for alternative cancer treatments. Alternative cancer treatment helps one to cope with symptoms caused by cancer.
