NFRMC... Where Breast Cancer Care Is All About You |
You have breast cancer.
According to the American Cancer Society, this year 182,460
women and 1,990 men in the United States will hear those words.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and it is
the second leading cause of cancer death for women aside from
lung cancer. Receiving a breast cancer diagnosis can be devastating
but you are not alone. The cancer team at North Florida Regional
Medical Center (NFRMC) is here to walk with you every step of
the way from diagnosis, to treatment, to life after breast cancer.
The Breast Health Program at the Women’s Center at NFRMC
assists in the diagnosis of breast cancer by offering patients
mammograms, breast ultrasounds and the choice of several types
of minimally invasive breast biopsies. Digital mammograms, breast
ultrasounds and breast MRIs can help identify a lump in the breast.
If a lump is found, a biopsy (when a piece of tissue is removed
from a suspicious lump in the breast and viewed under a
microscope) is done to determine whether the lump is cancerous
or not. If a diagnosis of breast cancer is made, you will discuss
treatment options with cancer specialists. |

Women of Influence was created in January
2007 after I returned from a life changing
seminar in Texas. I came home challenged,
inspired, and determined to live the life I was
destined to live and help others to do the same.
My desire is for women from all walks of life of
every age, race and nationality to join us on this
journey to live a life of passion and purpose. I
want women to know how significant they are
and the influence they can have whether they
are college students, moms at home raising
their children, women juggling their career and
home life or retired empty nesters. As long as
we have breath on this earth, we can make a
difference.

An Embarassing Problem That Affects Many Women |
|
It starts with a question.
A question about something unwanted yet life changing.
It can simply be a “WHY?”
It might be a working mother asking herself why she gets up 4-5 times
every night, which significantly affects her ability to function effectively
at work. Or it could be a grandmother wondering why she can’t pick up
her grandchildren without urinary leakage. Whatever the case may be,
the 17 million women that are affected by bladder control have a solution
for this problem – and for more than 80 percent it can be fixed
without surgery |

Shirley Evans, of Alachua, says she’s never heard a peep from her neighbors.
Not even a sound.
Evans has never heard a click, clack, bang or boom from the 150-ton machines that
crawl around less than an eighth of a mile from her house.
