The Anonymous Widower

Breast Cancer and Obesity

Two items on BBC Breakfast concern the increase in the incidence of breast cancer and also obesity.  As the latter is known to be a factor in the first, isn’t it about time people got the message?

C had breast cancer, survived it and the squamous cell carcinoma of the heart that killed her was of a totally different type.

But she got her lump in exactly the same place, where a car airbag going off in an accident, caused quite a severe bruise.  Her oncologist didn’t rule out the connection, especially as she was slim, fit, didn’t drink too much and ate healthily.
