Today is the official Wear it Pink day in aid to raise awareness and funds for the fight against breast cancer which effects 1 in 8 women. There has been a lot of bake offs with the #BreakthroughBakeoff pink parties, shopping events, exclusive products, charity runs and so much more. With so much going on , most people are aware of the disease but the most important thing is for women to check their breasts regularly. The earlier cancer is caught the easier it is to fight and this is why it is so important to detect any issues early on, this could save your life and in turn others.
It is so easy to get caught up in all the pink activities and the fundraising (which is amazing) but many women forget the main object of raising awareness and that is to check their own breasts. I have to admit I was one of these women, I took part in pink aerobics, made my whole work place wear pink and love throwing a pink party but didn’t actually think about checking my own breasts at all. It has only been the past couple of years that I have started and even though it is a scary thought that you may find something it can’t be worse than finding out too late. So here is my plea to all your beautiful ladies, check your breasts and spread the word ♥
