The Real Facts of Male Breast Cancer
Breast Cancer is the second leading cause of
death of women in the United States. However, breast cancer can occur in men,
as well. According to recent statistics from the Center for Disease Control,
222,000 women and 2,100 men in the United States were diagnosed with breast
cancer this year. 41,000 women and 450 men in the United States died from
breast cancer in 2014. Many popular cancer-related websites, have limited
to zero findings about “Male” breast cancer and treatments. Most of the
sites appeal to, inform, and are directed towards women. Very few websites
acknowledge the fact that male breast cancer even exists. The lack of
commercials, blogs, and survival stories has proven that people do not fully
understand what male breast cancer is about. The first step is to bring further
public awareness to this issue. Men who suffer from this disease deserve
to have the proper internet information, just as women do.
To bring more attention to this particular
affliction, World Wide Motion Pictures Corporation is presenting the feature
film, The Lovely Patient, which highlights Frank Hartsfeld, a man battling
breast cancer, while he is also desperately searching for a way to attend his
daughter’s wedding. This poignant story helps bring awareness to this often
overlooked, severe medical condition.

Pictures Corporation, coming February 17th on DVD and VOD. Vimeo pre-sale is
going on right now.
