As a nurse I can tell you this little tid bit of info is NOT disclosed to patients. Nor are these woman told how the fetal tissue is then used for research, vaccine production, etc etc etc.

Looks like the results are being skewed in this apples and oranges study or maybe it’s the author of the article who is purposefully skewing the study. It’s been known that birth control increase breast cancer and never having a child tends to increase it as well so it would follow that abortion would fall into that category. Setting aside the religious and moral aspects of abortion, I don’t see that abortion by itself as opposed to naturally losing the baby would increase the chance of breast cancer 3-4 times. The article is not presenting valid results.

And I would add to your post, just because you’ve never had an abortion, don’t take breast cancer lightly. I just lost an immediate family memeber to that killer and she had NONE of these risk factors.

The knowledge of a higher frequency of breast cancer for those who abort will hopefully open up the eyes of the anxious (unplanned and unwanted) pregnant mothers ... in order to save their breasts -- their babies [and their hearts].

My wife has breast cancer. She has completed chemo and just had a mastectomy (2 weeks ago). She still has to get chemo-lite treatments every three weeks and eight weeks of radiation.

She has kicked cancer’s rear end the whole time. She never let it get the best of her. 90% of fighting cancer is mental.

BTW, she had no history or preconditions to say that she was at risk.

Say what you want about SBK, they did help us initially.

I would be hard put to take a study of people from a third world country with a society and living conditions totally different from ours and try to make a correlation.
