October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and with that comes a lot of people fighting to put an end to cancer.

"We know that breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women", he said.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer, a part of the World Health Organization, estimated that in 2012, around 1.7 million new cases of breast cancer in women occurred worldwide.

Liz has previously spoken about her grandmother who passed away from breast cancer in 1992. Monday, West Town Mall hosted "More than Pink", a fashion show with breast cancer survivors.

"It was a telephone call", he said.

"When you get diagnosed with breast cancer, or any kind of cancer, you just go through a really dark time and you never feel like you can get to the other side", Weber said.

The consultant said that most people died of ignorance because they had no faith in the health facilities. According to Gulf News, there is no way to overemphasize the fact that early intervention alone can dramatically increase the chances of surviving breast cancer, and the cure for early stages is at 99 percent.

"Can you imagine if every business in Sarasota did this?"

Departments from all over the United States are trading in their traditional gold badges until November.

"It's great to raise funds, but to raise awareness is even more important", she said.

She also explained that she participated in all six breast cancer awareness classes at Orangetheory because, in comparison with the battle of cancer treatment, it is a small effort. The money will go towards the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk on October 23 and, ultimately, towards research on the disease. The walk takes place on October 16 at Lighthouse Point Park in New Haven.
