Breast cancer touches many lives – either as a patient, family member, friend or co-worker. It knows no boundaries with respect to age, gender, race or socioeconomic status. During National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, we are highlighting important stages of the breast health journey – prevention, support and survivorship.

Teammates across the enterprise are encouraged to participate in Breast Health Awareness Day on Wednesday, Oct. 23.

Research shows that lifestyle changes can lower the chances of getting breast cancer. At least 18% of all cancers and about 16% of cancer deaths in the U.S. are related to excess body weight, physical inactivity, tobacco use, alcohol consumption and/or poor nutrition.

Always involved in sports and activities, Barbara felt tired, weak and not herself while undergoing treatment after being diagnosed with breast cancer from a routine mammogram. She was able to get back to herself with the help of Team Phoenix, a 14-week triathlon training program through Advocate Health Care. She reminds teammates that whatever you’re going through, there is a program to help, and you’d be surprised if you get out there and give something new a try. She stresses for teammates to not miss a year of wellness checks, annual exams or mammograms because there’s help and support available.
Barbara Cortes, PT, Director, Rehabilitation Services, Aurora Sinai Medical Center
