Breast Cancer

My favorite teacher, Mrs. Latz, has a brother that was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease). For an assignment in my computer class we are supposed to come up with 5 facts on a disease and how you can raise awareness or help someone you know who lives with it. My disease that I chose to research is Breast Cancer.

                                    5 facts on Breast Cancer

1.   The youngest known survivor of breast cancer is Aleisha Hunter from Ontario, Canada. At only three years old, Aleisha underwent a complete mastectomy in 2010 to treat her juvenile strain of breast cancer.
2.    Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among American women after skin cancer. It is the second leading cause of cancer death in women after lung cancer. 
3.    The first operation to use anesthesia was a breast cancer surgery.
4.    The incidence of breast cancer is highest in more developed countries and lowest in less developed countries.
5.    The left breast is statistically more prone to developing cancer than the right breast. Scientists are unsure why.

                                   Ways to spread awareness 

1.    You can get involved by offering to volunteer, or by starting your own awareness campaign in your community, but you don’t have to wait till October to launch your project. You can begin planning your event whenever you want with the help of many organizations dedicated to Breast Cancer research and Awareness campaigns. 

2.    You can also enlist the help of your local church, PTA, or business organization to make your project successful and get others involved. For example, you can start by forming a committee to write a brief tip sheet on how people can stay healthy and reduce their risk of breast cancer. A tip sheet is generally no more than one page and lists important ideas and tips on a particular topic.                       

Dessert Dance Choices

You should choose Neverland because Neverland is about never getting older and I think this would be appropriate for a middle school dance. I think that we could have a cardboard cut out of a pirate ship and a jungle theme all over the place. Our photo booth could be of an aligator with its mouth open. I will try and bring a dessert to make this the best party ever!!!!!!!!!
