Why Are We Paying To Prevent Cancer?

I genuinely don’t understand how women are expected to prioritize preventative care when it still costs money. I went for peace of mind and left with a medical bill it feels backwards.

If breast cancer awareness is actually awareness, shouldn’t access be the part that’s free?

Should mammograms be free or is there a reason they aren’t? #GirlPOV #UnpopularOpinion #WomenDeserveBetter #BreastHealth #HealthcareTalk
