Young Survival Coalition + iPopperz Giveaway *CLOSED*
As most of you know, October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Almost all of us have been affected or have known someone who has been affected by breast cancer. Did you know that there are more than 250,000 women living in the U.S. who were diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 40 or under? The Young Survival Coalition (YSC) points out that "young women CAN and DO get breast cancer". We may like to believe that it couldn't possibly happen to us, but it can! The Young Survival Coalition helps raise young women's awareness about breast cancer and provides support to those who have been affected by the disease.
Here's more about the Young Survival Coalition:
Young Survival Coalition (YSC) is the premier international organization dedicated to the critical issues unique to young women and breast cancer. YSC works with survivors, caregivers and the medical, research, advocacy and legislative communities to increase the quality and quantity of life for women diagnosed with breast cancer ages 40 and under.
The wonderful folks at iPopperz, the makers of some amazing headphones (read our review HERE), teamed up with the Young Survival Coalition to help support their efforts. iPopperz created the Young Survival Coalition Ear Buds (pictured below), complete with sparkly pink jewels, a pink ribbon, and great sound quality! They are compatible with all MP3 players (iPod, Zune, etc.) and portable CD and DVD players! Also, these earbuds come with three different sizes of ear pads, so you get a customized fit that is perfect for you! These adorable earbuds not only allow you to look cute while rocking out to your favorite song, but also allow you to help support a great organization while doing so! For every pair that is sold, iPopperz will donate 10% of the purchase price to the Young Survival Coalition.
For more information about the Young Survival Coalition, please visit: http://www.youngsurvival.org/.
You can also find the YSC on Twitter and on Facebook.

I like the Sun Ear Bud on sunny yellow cord.
I learned that if you become a YSC Facebook Fan you get a chance to win a pink Vesta motorcycle.
The information regarding "younger" women sparks interest to me.
"Most research is focused on post-menopausal women, and premenopausal women - particularly those in their 20s and 30s - are dramatically under-represented."
That is scary to me.
I learned that If they begin studying breast cancer in young women, they may unlock the key to why all women are diagnosed with this deadly disease.
learned that you can order a free ResourceLink Guidebook thats full of great information.

When i was browsing the site, I was reminded of something I guess we all know, but maybe don't think about enough. Breast Cancer is the LEADING cause of cancer death in women ages 15! to 54. That's crazy!

JeansandTs@hotmail.com
I learned that there is very little research focused on issues unique to this younger population, such as fertility, pregnancy, genetic predisposition, the impact of hormonal status on the effectiveness of treatment, psycho-social and long-term survivorship issues and higher mortality rates for young women, particularly for African-Americans and Latinas.

That there is no way to detect cancer in people younger than 40. Which makes me sick, I was diagnosed with cancer almost 2 years ago and never would have known if not for my family doctor staring at a lump that had formed. I know that with technolgy these days that someone somewhere can help in detecting cancer in our young people:)

I read that YSC encourages young women to become advocates for their own health and become educated about breast cancer.

hubhop@bellsouth(dot)net
I learned that there a currently clinical trials and studies underway to determine the cause of breast cancer in young women.
On such study is the Epidemiological studies: studies on human populations which attempt to link human health effects (e.g. cancer) to a cause (e.g. exposure to a specific chemical). These studies are usually conducted over a period of time.

"Most research is focused on post-menopausal women, and premenopausal women - particularly those in their 20s and 30s - are dramatically under-represented."
I'm wondering why there's no mention of the scientific link between abortion and breast cancer on most sites discussing risks.

Young women CAN and DO get breast cancer. While breast cancer in young women accounts for a small percentage of all breast cancer cases, the impact of this disease is widespread: There are more than 250,000 women living in the U.S. who were diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 40 or under, and approximately 10,000 young women will be diagnosed in the next year.
