HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — It doesn’t matter where you come from. No matter your age, gender, race, social economic status, or how much money you have in the bank, cancer affects everyone. In the month of October we recognize that. October is Breast Cancer awareness month.
1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer in their lifetime.
For men the number is smaller. In their lifetime around 1 in 833 men will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer.
In 2021 2,650 men will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer and 530 men will die from Breast Cancer. 281,550 women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer and 43,600 women will die from Breast Cancer
This year, there are 25 men taking part in the real Men Wear Pink Campaign here in North Alabama. I am one of those men, and I couldn’t be more excited to take part for the fourth year in a row.
