Breast Cancer and Emotional Pain and Suffering

Breast cancer is an endemic disease that strikes more than 180,000 women each and every year. Each woman bears the emotional pain and suffering of this disease in their own way, but the good news is, if you have breast cancer, you are not alone. There are several groups in which you can share your story and seek support from those who are similarly situated. Furthermore, your support of groups, such as DES Action, can help shed a national light on the casual link between in utero DES exposure and breast cancer.
