My team is tracking every hostage who's been released and we are taking their photos and moving them to the opposite side of our office.

It's truly impotent and cowardly that Hamas has taken even babies as hostages.

HAMAS MUST RELEASE ALL THE HOSTAGES NOW!

A5: biggest deterent IMO: lack of education. Very important to educate people and examine their bodies regularly. #HealthTalk

[IHadCancer @ihadcancer]

A5: A "could never happen to me" mentality. Unfortunately, cancer doesn't have a face until its yours or someone you love. #healthtalk

[Lindsay Avner @LindsayAvner]

A5: Fear of finding something abnormal. We encourage women to be proactive & face it head on. Early detection saves lives! #HealthTalk

[Lindsay Avner @LindsayAvner]

Another reason why it's so important to talk to ur family about health history! #HealthTalk https://t.co/zc5ziI5dAj
