October is often associated with autumn, Halloween and the color pink because it is breast cancer awareness month. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer and while it is more common in women, it can still be found in a man’s breast tissue.
Breast cancer can be detected by getting an annual mammogram once a woman reaches the age of 40. Early breast cancer detection can be crucial for improving your survival rates and successfully eradicating the cancer. There are a few factors which contribute to how likely you are of getting breast cancer. These factors include gender, race, age, ethnicity and geographic location. While everyone is at risk for breast cancer, the risk increases as you age. Most breast cancers occur in women aged 50 and older. Only 5% of breast cancer occurs in women under the age of 40.
While there currently is no cure for breast cancer, researchers are working tirelessly to find one. Dr. Dean Kane is a plastic surgeon by day and an artist by night. He experiments with photography, painting and mixed media to create beautiful works of art which he sells and donates the proceeds to The Red Devils of Maryland, a breast cancer charity that help support women with breast cancer and their families while receiving treatment for their breast cancer.
To see some of Dr. Kane’s beautiful artwork, they can be viewed and purchased here http://DeanKaneArt.com/.
On Wednesday, October 16th, Drs. Dean and Lauri Kane will host the Grand Opening of DeanKaneART Gallery at the Ritz-Carlton Residences in the Inner Harbor of Baltimore. The gallery opening will serve as a fundraiser for The Red Devils, a Maryland-based, nonprofit whose mission is to fund support services that improve the quality of life for breast cancer patients and their families. A portion of the proceeds from purchases of Dr. Kane’s artwork and all monies from the auctions and raffles will be donated to The Red Devils Horns of Hope Campaign so that they can remain a source of hope to breast cancer families living in Maryland.
