spread the word about the Sister Study.

from the Sister Study this week. Haven’t opened it yet, but i think it contains receptacles for my toenails & such, to mail back to them. I’m pretty excited about being involved with this!

but then decided that a goal unto itself would be a more effective way to spread the word:

Sisters!

My sister turned me onto the Sister Study, for sisters of women who have had breast cancer. U.S. women ages 35-74 whose sisters have had breast cancer, but who have not had breast cancer themselves, are eligible. It’s through the NIH. They’re looking for 50,000 participants.

If you are a sister or if you have a sister of a woman who has had breast cancer, please consider signing up here. I did it this morning!
