Until Every Woman Knows. Pass it on.
Not every woman with breast cancer needs chemotherapy...

There is a test that can help determine if she will. But half of the women* with early stage breast cancer who are eligible for the test don't get it.

They need to know. They need to ask their doctor for the Oncotype DX test.

1. The working poor without medical insurance or even with it
when they cannot afford the premiums and co-pays like me will just die without being able to protect themselves. I consider it the conservative plan to eliminate the poor and pretend they didn't know the poor would die.
