October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and because breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in American women, many lives have been touched by it (and men can get breast cancer too).  There are lots of resources covering risk, prevention, and treatment.  Here are just a few.

Online


At the library, recent books include
  • Bald is better with earrings: a survivor's guide to getting through breast cancer by Andrea Hutton
  • A breast cancer alphabet by Madhulika Sikka
  • The silver lining: a supportive and insightful guide to breast cancer by Hollye Jacobs
  • Pandora's DNA: tracing the breast cancer genes through history, science, and one family tree by Lizzie Stark
