    Hoarding is not dirty dishes in the sink and a pile of unpaid bills or unread newspapers on the kitchen table. Hoarding is a condition where the debris and collected materials of an individual become so large and unmanageable that it affects their relationships with others, their health and their safety. The saddest part about hoarding is that the sufferer is often extremely resistant to any

We Must Finish the Job We Started, By Nancy Brinker, Founder, The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Found

Nancy Brinker, Susan G. KomenWhen my sister Suzy and I were growing up, one of the things our parents always stressed was that, “with perseverance and courage, you can succeed at anything.”

 

When Suzy was losing her battle against breast cancer, I promised her that yes, I would do everything within my power to end the kind of suffering she and so many other women were experiencing because of breast cancer.

At that time, so little was known about the disease, and people didn’t even want to talk about it in public. Treatment options were limited and so, unfortunately, was the life expectancy of most breast cancer patients.

Breast cancer: are you at risk?

 

Breast cancer is a seemingly random, equal opportunity disease. Even though lung cancer and heart disease kill more women in the United States each year, breast cancer remains one of the top health concerns of American women.

Only about 5 percent of all reported breast cancer cases are attributed to genetic factors. What affects your risk of getting breast cancer?

According to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, the leading source of non-profit funding for breast cancer research in the world, being a woman and getting older are the biggest risk factors for developing breast cancer.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure: the power of a new name and a re-ignited mission

Founder, Susan G. Komen for the Cure®


Susan G. Komen for the cure logoOn a sweltering afternoon in July 2006, I found myself in a converted aircraft hangar at Dallas’s Love Field, getting ready to address a crowd of staffers, Affiliates, board members and special guests of The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, the advocacy and fundraising organization I founded 25 years ago this year.

We were all gathered at the Frontiers of Flight Museum, a place dedicated to the history of aeronautical ingenuity, boldness and courage. In the museum’s main exhibition hall, a billowing white tent had been erected, with seating inside for the 400 guests. They knew what they were gathered for. But they didn’t know what to expect. They knew big changes were afoot. When I took my place in the middle of the tent, the suspense had grown and the event had the feeling of an old- fashioned revival meeting.

Women's Health and the Healthcare Pharmaceutical Industry

Woman Holding Test TubeWomen are increasingly attractive to Pharma


Are you aware that....

Sometimes - according to pharmaceutical companies - it’s hard to be a woman? From adolescence to old age, drug manufacturers offer artificial alternatives to the natural cycles of the body - contraceptives help avoid unplanned pregnancies, therapies aid fertility. But focusing on potential high earning products misses the long-term view: the creation of a female franchise that meets all of a woman’s needs from cradle to grave.

Women are increasingly attractive to pharma, and numerous companies are in development with treatments for gynecological conditions. The revenue potential for products addressing this market is immense; unsurprisingly, pharmaceutical companies are concentrating their R&D efforts where they are likely to get the best returns.
