We are excited about our new YouTube video reporting on the study,
Dolle et al. 2009, in which U.S. National Cancer
Institute scientist Louise Brinton and Dr. Janet Daling of the Fred
Hutchinson Cancer Research Center appear as co-authors.
Dolle's team reported significant risk increases
for women with abortions and users of oral contraceptives nine months
ago, but the National Cancer Institute and cancer fundraising
businesses have made no efforts to issue nationwide warnings to women.
The spin from RHReality.org, the marketing arm for the tobacco industry
- I mean, the abortion industry - last week was this. There is "nothing
new" about the Dolle team's findings concerning abortion. Dolle's team
had to include abortion among what researchers listed in their paper as
"known and suspected risk factors," not because abortion really is a
risk factor for breast cancer, but only because abortion had been
included in the 1990s studies (if you can believe that!).
The trouble is that Brinton and the National Cancer Institute (NCI)
workshop in 2003 alleged that all earlier retrospective studies (using
on women's self-reports of abortion histories) were not reliable.
In other words, the Dolle team in 2009 relied on data from two 1990s
studies that one of its authors, Dr. Brinton, and the NCI had
previously claimed were unreliable!
Dolle and her colleagues examined 897 specimens of cancerous breast
tissue saved from women who participated in Daling's and Brinton's
research in 1994 and 1996. They used new technology to test these
specimens for triple-negative breast cancer, which was first described
in medical journals in 2007.
Dolle's team tested the specimens for triple-negative breast cancer and
matched them with reproductive history. They found a statistically
significant 40% risk increase among study subjects with abortion
histories for all types of breast cancer, regardless of it being
tripe-negative or not.
Send Video to Family, Friends
Help us to make the YouTube video go viral on the internet. Send it to
your family and friends.
Send Video to Legislators in Congress
Send the video to your representative in the U.S. House and your U.S.
senators. Ask them to investigate the National Cancer Institute's
failure to fulfill its role in the prevention of breast cancer through
timely warnings. Tell your representatives that government funding of
abortion will cause more women to die of breast cancer.
Send Video to Journalists
Send the video to journalists in your area and ask them to investigate
"CancerGate," the National Cancer Institute's cover-up of the
abortion-breast cancer link. Mainstream journalists were overjoyed to
report on the few studies showing no link between abortion and breast
cancer (although these have since been proven in medical journals to be
fraudulent). Ask them to put women's health first above their
pro-abortion ideology.
Finally, doctors from India are making doctors from the American
College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the American Medical
Association look backwards because the latter deny an abortion-breast
cancer link, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Here is a
link to a news page from the Pune Mirror in India whose physician, Dr.
M.C. Watsa, in his "Ask the Sexpert" column, wrote to an
18-year-old woman that:
"A breast lump can occur after an abortion. You are right to be
concerned. See a gynecologist for a detailed examination."
Your help is needed in this critical work of educating the public about
the abortion-breast cancer link. Thank you in advance for your care and
concern.
Sincerely,
