</p> <p>It seems like we've all been affected by breast cancer at some point in our lives, whether we have had it, or have had a family member or friend who's battled it. Every woman has a chance of getting breast cancer. Other than skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer in American women and the disease we fear most. As scared as we are, you can try to remember that if you find breast cancer early, it can often be treated successfully. Many women have overcome breast cancer and are living life to its fullest! </p> <p class="textMainBold">Where can I learn more about breast cancer? </p> <p class="textMainBold">For More Information...</p> <p><span class="textMainBold">National Cancer Institute</span><br> Cancer Information Service <br> Phone: (800) 422-6237 <br> Internet Address: <a href="http://cis.nci.nih.gov" target="_blank">http://cis.nci.nih.gov</a></p> <p><span class="textMainBold">National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program</span> <br> Phone: (888)-842-6355 (select option 7) <br> Internet Address: <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/nbccedp/index.htm" target="_blank">http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/nbccedp/index.htm</a> </p> <p><span class="textMainBold">American Cancer Society</span> <br> Phone: (800)-ACS-2345 <br> Internet Address: <a href="http://www.cancer.org" target="_blank">http://www.cancer.org</a> </p> <p><span class="textMainBold">Susan G.
