This animation was an inordinate amount of work. Was it the best use of my time? Hmm. But once I had the idea I was compelled to give it a go. And what’s life for if not for satisfying creative whimsy? #cansky

Know who you are voting for. Science matters. Evidence-based medicine PLUS. Visiting the Canadian Cancer Survivor networks website is a good place to start becoming or getting more informed. #Canada #CanSky #Elxn45 #ItsOurVote

Canadians need to talk about cancer screening
Canada’s cancer screening guidelines lag far behind the latest science, and Canadians are paying with their lives.

So apparently the government asked a group of experts in EBM to review the work of the task force and based on that review the government has asked the task force to pause their work for a month.

A temporary pause can create space for expert voices and improved approaches to come forward. Let’s hope this pause leads to meaningful changes that prioritize early detection and better outcomes for all. #CanSky #CancerBS #BreastCancer #BreastDensity

I hate to be a downer, but this is why we need to #screen40 and offer supplemental screening for people with dense breasts - Category C and D. #CanSky #CancerBS #Manitoba Also you’re never too young to have a symptom or a sign checked out. #DemandImaging.

True for #breastcancer. Early detection saves lives and quality of life. Get your mammogram—a few minutes of discomfort is far more manageable than the devastating news of a later-stage cancer. Demand supplemental imaging for dense breasts. #ThanksCancer #CanSky #KnowYourLemons #ThanksHank

A mammogram is not perfect, but it’s currently the best tool we have for breast cancer screening in #Manitoba. It’s the only test that determines breast density—a critical piece of information that can impact your health decisions. #cansky #CancerBS #SupplementalScreeningForCandD #KnowYourLemons
Two lemon halves representing breasts are sitting on a couch, one shows a lemon seed in it. The text says a mammogram can find a lump before it can be felt. And then the Know Your Lemons logo and taglines Breast health education for early detection. App. Classes. Campaign.

Get to know your normal! Breasts can have different textures—soft, lumpy, or firm. If you find something hard and immovable, don’t wait. Get it checked by a doctor and insist on imaging. #CanSky #Screen40not50 #SupplementalScreeningForCandD no more #cancerBS
Text says account lump often feels hard like a lemon seed and immovable. But it can be any shape or size then there are three pictures of soft pea which represents milk globes, soft beans, like a kidney bean represents lymph nodes and a hard seed represents a lump that needs to be checked out it could be assist or it could be a malignant tumor.
