This is just recollection of the moments I face in life, you may think you know me when you are reading this, but this blog is only a fragment of the many personalities that can manifest in me
What are sea kittens, I mean we have Sea Lion (lions are a type of cat) but sea kittens? are they baby sea lions? Nope. PETA (People of Ethical Treatment of Animal) said we should rename fish as sea kittens. I thought it was so stupid to do this type of public service announcement. I accidentally found this video on YouTube. This girl took the words right out of my mouth..
What is breast cancer? Collections of cells that are growing abnormally or without control are called tumors. Tumors that do not have the ability to spread throughout the body may be referred to as “benign” and are not thought of as cancerous. Tumors that have the ability to grow into other tissues or spread to distant parts of the body are referred to as “malignant.” Malignant tumors within the breast are called “breast cancer”. Theoretically, any of the types of tissue in the breast can form a cancer, cancer cells are most likely to develop from either the ducts or the glands. These tumors may be referred to as “invasive ductal carcinoma” (cancer cells developing from ducts), or “invasive lobular carcinoma” (cancer cells developing from lobes).
Sometimes, precancerous cells may be found within breast tissue, and are referred to as ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS) or lobular carcinoma in-situ (LCIS). DCIS and LCIS are diseases in which cancerous cells are present within breast tissue, but are not able to spread or invade other tissues. DCIS represents about 20% of all breast cancers. Because DCIS cells may become capable of invading breast tissue, treatment for DCIS is usually recommended. In contrast, treatment is usually not needed for LCIS.
This one of the most common among women around the world and it is one of the most preventable. Women should undergo mamograms to detect any abnormality. However by far the best way to detect breast cancer is by monthly self breast examination, because they are your breast, you would know if there is anything wrong with it. However would you let these people do your breast examination?
