STEP-BY-STEP: MAKING YOUR
COMMUNITIES HEALTHIER
|
| DR. MAYA ANGELOU: |
As we get older, our chances
of developing breast cancer increase.
(Couple dancing.) |
| GRAPHICS: | WANNA treated her breast cancer in 1979. |
| DR. ANGELOU: | However, every year, more women continue to live meaningful lives because their breast cancer was discovered and treated early. |
| GRAPHICS: | Yuk Hing treated her breast cancer in 1996. |
| DR. ANGELOU: | Every woman deserves to be healthy. |
| GRAPHICS: | CARMEN treated her breast cancer in 1998. |
| DR. ANGELOU: | And a good way to make sure
you don't have breast cancer is to have a mammogram every year. If
you're over 40, call about a free mammogram. Do it for yourself and
the people you love
Every woman counts, every year. |

| GO TO CLOSEUP OF ANNA. | |
| ANNA: | Oh Harold, that’s sweet. Are you trying to tell me that you love me? |
| HAROLD: | No. I just heard, you know, you should get a mammogram every year. |
| GO TO CLOSEUP OF ANNA | |
| ANNA: | Oh, Harold, now you know you trying to tell me that you can't live without me. |
