Steelers Running Back Pays For 53 Mammograms In Honor Of Late Mom

For the National Football League, putting pink on players’ uniforms is part of outreach to women during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But a few high school cheerleaders just found out they aren’t allowed to wear the pink uniforms they raised money to buy. Use the hashtag #WHEREDOYOUDOIT on social media to join the conversation and share where you do it.

Williams had said he wanted to wear pink all season long to honor his late mother, Sandra Hill, who died from breast cancer in May 2014.

Thanks to all the women who took this hashtag literally for giving us two very good reasons to support breast cancer research.

And he makes it a point to cheer for all the women out there fighting breast cancer.

Breast cancer is the second most common cause of death from cancer in women in the United Kingdom, and while the disease also affects men, it’s rare – around 400 cases are diagnosed each year. “And you didn’t even have to ask for it, it was offered”, said O’Neill. To cut down on the risk for breast cancer, Fisher recommends maintaining a healthy body weight, limiting alcohol intake, and regular exercise. But it can be easy to forget, men can get breast cancer too.

She says it’s those people who come back, who have helped the organization grow into what it is today.

Newport and Cocke County leaders gathered Wednesday to talk about the importance of early detection to combat breast cancer.

Navigators started in 2012 and are used at cancer treatment centers around the country. Wearing pink when he’s off the field and while making public appearances would be a great way to keep the conversation going well beyond October.
