Breast cancer is unfortunately a part of many women’s histories. So, to close out Women’s History Month, I was inspired to write this article. I got my first mammogram on March 31st, and I thought it would be helpful to share my experience as well as more information about breast cancer that is important for everyone to know.

June is Men’s Health Month. The health of everyone is important, however the spotlight on men’s health seems to be just beginning to shine brighter. A lot of people might roll their eyes at this since the patriarchy is still alive and kicking, but there is validity in encouraging men to be more aware of their health and to make it a priority.
In the current political climate of the United States there has been so much news and talk about Planned Parenthood; rightfully so. Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. is an outstanding organization that has been providing essential healthcare and education for 100 years, and it would be a disservice to the public if it were ever to disappear. However – dare I say? – the way many people, even people who support the organization and the way Planned Parenthood tends to promote its services could be improved.
