Hi, Ms. Roane:
I appreciate all that you do to bring breast cancer issues to the forefront - you do a great job. I'm writing because I recently lost a best friend to IBC and was amazed that most women I have spoken to about the disease since her passing are not aware of it at all or its atypical symptoms. If your report on 7/9 doesn't already include this information, would it be possible to review it again in another report sometime soon? (I think your last report on it was about one year ago - but still, for some reason, women just aren't getting the message.) Thanks again for all you do!
Leenie Brown, Gaithersburg
