"It seems like an epidemic.Our niece is dying from breast cancer which spread to her bones and liver.She is 29.She is married with a 5 year old little girl.Very sad."

Sorry to hear that....and yes, it is very sad. Twenty-nine is VERY young. Recommended age to start mammograms is 40, though 30 is recommended "if there is family history" (which was the case with my wife).

I have heard (but have not researched) that there is a connection with hormonal birth control and breast cancer. It certainly seems logical that there might be.

I heard that too.They suspect because she stopped breast feeding it may have cause it.Sounds weird.Right now the liver is damaged and they are just trying to control.Lot’s of support of course and we hold our breath.
