[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I am really baffled. Why is suggesting that putting equal emphasis on good diet with special attention to fruits and veggies, exercise, and low or no alcohol consumption IN ADDITION TO MAMMOGRAMS been construed as a false promise of cancer immunity or blaming victims or sneering at overweight individuals???

Breast cancer is a nasty disease that no one deserves to get for any reason. And no amount of pure living can guarantee one will not get it. Nor will an annual mammogram. I think we can all agree that we would like to see the number of cases decline as quickly as possible to zero. My ONLY comment was that achieving that outcome would require addressing both screening AND prevention. And some good luck is also obviously required at the individual level.

I have obviously offended nearly everyone here, so I will not post again. My apologies.

This is 9:26.

... because having sat at the bedside of many breast cancer patients who are suffering and likely to die from this disease, telling them that they should have eaten fruits and vegetables more (than they already had) is just as rude as any other cheery but rude remark like "your dead child is in a better place" or "your miscarriage was God's Will" or "your SN child is dead, so your life will be easier" or any other cruel but "helpful" remark. Please stay out of the hospital and away from the grieving. They don't need your "help"[/quote]

I'm pretty sure the highlighted comment was directed towards people discussing the usefulness of annual mammograms here on this thread ... Those breast cancer victims laying in their hospital beds.[/quote]
