  During the past twenty-five years, many support groups and organizations have emerged to help women deal with a diagnosis of breast cancer. There’s a wealth of information that can help people and their families cope. You can visit many Web sites for more information, or call information hotlines. Some of these groups include:

  Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization:

  1-800-221-2141, www.y-me.org

  Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation:

  1-800-I’M AWARE, www.komen.org

  American Cancer Society:

  1-800-ACS-2345, www.cancer.org

  National Cancer Institute:

  1-800-4-CANCER, www.cancer.gov

  My hope for all of you is that breast cancer will be eradicated in your lifetime, but should this disease afflict someone you know and love, I send you my heartfelt wishes for courage and strength. We are all connected by love and hope for the future.

  All my best to you,

  Lurlene
