Du'ers of the female persuasion, have you heard of the Army of Women?

http://www.armyofwomen.org/


It's a web site that matches volunteers with researchers seeking to prevent breast cancer by finding the causes. For example, a study may request samples of breast milk from nursing mothers or a blood sample from say post menopausal women.
Have you joined up yet? If not, why not?

1. Thank you so very much.
I just signed up. I quickly went over the FAQs. Perhaps I'll bring this to the attention of my MD, to have the forms in his office. My daughter is an RN, and we'll get going on this.
Can't thank you enough for posting this here...priceless.

:loveya:

peace~

2. It'd be great if we could keep this kicked and get it cross-posted to GD.
Finding a way to prevent cancer is the best way to fight cancer.

3. Please do cross-post
Although only accepting women right now, the initial goal of one million is over the quarter-million mark. All women can take part...and men are our support system. The male DUers can get their partners, sisters, family and friends to sign on....I'd love to see this in GD.
This army is just the beginning...
Once again, thank you for bringing this to our attention...now to spread it further.
It's so easy to simply sign up, and I'll do whatever is asked of me...Cancer has touched all of our lives.
:hug:

peace~
