That's roughly how many women in Zimbabwe are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. Around half that number lose their lives to it, often because it was found too late.
Behind every number is a mother, a sister, a friend, a colleague. Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among Zimbabwean women, but it doesn't have to be a death sentence. Found early, it is far more treatable.
A lump, a dimple in the skin, a change in the ni**le, or a breast that just doesn't feel like yours anymore are all reasons to get checked. Don't wait for pain.
This Pink October, Gunhill Medical Village is offering breast examinations. It's quick, it's private, and it could save your life. 🩺
