For over a decade, Tug Valley ARH Regional Medical Center in South Williamson has honored Breast Cancer Awareness Month by hosting a Color Me Pink reception. Women and a few men joined together in the cafeteria at ARH to learn about breast cancer and how to detect it. Today is a great opportunity to open our hospital up to the public and bring them on site to talk more about communicating and educating folks about cancer and a risk in particular about breast cancer. What's really neat about it is every year it gets a little bit bigger. So we have a new venue today and we filled out this location, filled up the room about 100 folks attended today and hopefully next year we can go out in the community and make it a little bit bigger. Doctors and specialists say it's better to detect it early on, so understanding how and when is important. Breast cancer is a defeatable disease. I think that the victories will come with the information that we have available. We don't necessarily need a new drug or a fancy new operation to feed it. We just need to be aware and to be doing the screening that will detect the breast cancer early. Doctors in the South Williamson and Belfrey community have honored Breast Cancer Awareness Month by giving away free mammograms. It started on Facebook about midweek last week and our local Giovanni's put a special out there that they were giving away a $50 guest certificate to anyone who comes up and registers for a free mammogram at our hospital. Since then, other businesses have followed suit. Reporting in South Williamson for EKB News, I'm Shelby Steele.
