Brenda Jensen: Examine yourself for signs of cancer

This goes out to every female and male in the world. Please do self breast exams! My daughter was unfortunately diagnosed with breast cancer. But if she had not found the lump in her breast herself, she could have dropped dead and nobody would have known why.

The lump tripled in size in just three weeks. She had surgery and is now going through chemotherapy. This nasty disease can effect anybody. But when it happens to you or a loved one, it’s an eye-opener. There’s a lot of crying behind closed doors. Face to face, you try to be strong. It’s a hard thing to deal with. My daughter saved my life many times when I was a diabetic and suffered kidney failure. Now it’s my turn to be there for her. I just wish I could do more.

Please everyone to do breast exams; you could save your own life. Thank God my daughter found her lump before she had a mammogram’ before it was too late. Do it for your life!
