It's October 1st - the first day of my favorite month. I love the fall weather, warm clothes, scarves and boots, Halloween, leaves falling, autumn bliss... my birthday. It's also Breast Cancer Awareness Month and a few weeks ago I pledged that today, I would blog for my breasts.
The Love/AVON Army of Women initiative is focused on recruiting one million women for breast cancer research, with the long term goal of preventing breast cancer all together. The program is maintained entirely online. Women can sign up to be a part of the Army of Women by signing up at www.armyofwomen.org - I did, and I would encourage you to as well. Once you sign up, you are contacted via E-blast to participate in breast cancer prevention research studies. In many research studies, recruiting subjects is the biggest obstacle, and the Army of Women innovation program has virtually eliminated this hurdle.
“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you’re going to mess it up sometimes, it’s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you’re going to mess it up… So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life’s a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.” – Marilyn Monroe
