Nothing wrong with supporting breast cancer research or any type of cancer research for that matter. I have a young niece who is now battling breast cancer and it's a horrible ordeal.

It is a bit perplexing however, how so much public attention is given to breast cancer and ovarian cancer when the number one killer of women is heart disease, causing 1 in 3 deaths each year. That’s approximately one woman every minute!

I guess the people behind the breast cancer campaign have just done a better public relations job.
