There was a news item last week about this black doctor who chose to work in a hospital close to the low income neighborhood in which he grew up.

The number of women there who were dying from breast cancer appalled him; most did not seek treatment early because of lack of money and insurance.

In a day where early detection of breast cancer should be accessible to every woman it is a disgrace. After all, think of all the money saved by smashing our boobs in a vise when an ultrasound is not only less painful it's more accurate.
