October brings breast cancer awarenss

By Nicole Cagle

      October is the time of the year where Halloween is on the mind.  However, October is also known as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
      “[Breast Cancer Awareness Month is] an annual international health campaign organized by major breast cancer charities every October to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention and cure. The campaign also offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer,” according to Wikipedia.
      From the I “heart” Boobs T-shirts to the awareness walks in several communities showing support this month is not a tasking thing to do.
